My 7-year-old daughter's lower jaw closes in front of her upper jaw (Reverse Bite).

Min dotter tar upp sina nedre tänder framför sina övre tänder. Kan det bli bättre i denna ålder utan käkoperation?

Gå till en tandreglering omedelbart, du är precis i åldern för ingripande! Vår son hade det också, han fick "Face Mask (Reverse Headgear)"-behandling när han var 8 år. De drog fram överkäken och på 8 månader låg underkäken kvar, vi klarade oss utan operation.

For Class III (skeletal lower jaw protrusion or upper jaw retardation) anomalies, the "golden age" is between the ages of 7 and 9. During this period, by taking advantage of the growth spurt, the maxilla (upper jaw) can be directed forward with a face mask and maxillary expansion protocol, and double chin surgery that may be required in adulthood can be prevented.
