Symptoms
If a child experiences
difficulty chewing, speaking,
or breathing, or has
frequent headaches,
treatment might be
necessary.

Issues
If the jaw is not developing
properly and the teeth are
not erupting correctly, early
intervention might be
necessary to prevent future
problems.

Crooked, crowded, or
protruding teeth can be a sign
of a larger jaw alignment issue.

speaking, or breathing may

nose may cause children to
breathe through their mouth,
