Our friends at the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) have put together a helpful list of potential orthodontic problems that may mean it is time to call Kemp Orthodontics for an appointment:
- Early or late loss of baby teeth.
- Difficulty in chewing or biting
- Mouth breathing
- Snoring
- Any oral habits, such as finger/thumb sucking
- Crowded, misplaced or blocked teeth
- Jaw that shifts when closing or makes sounds, protrude or retrude
- Speech difficulty
- Biting the cheek or biting into the roof of the mouth
- Protruding teeth
- Teeth that meet in a abnormal way or do not meet at all
- Facial imbalance or asymmetry
- Grinding or clenching of teeth
Do any of these warning signs fit you or your children? If so, give the Kemp Orthodontic office a call at 615.790.7027 for a complimentary orthodontic examination.
