At what age can my child be screened?
Hewitt Orthodontics follows the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) guidelines, which currently recommend initial screenings at approximately seven years of age. If your child is older than seven and you have not yet had an orthodontic screening, we will still be happy to assess your child.
