Phase I Interceptive Orthodontic Treatment plays an important role in the growth and development of the dental arches in children ages 6-11. Interceptive Treatment can correct many different dental and occlusal issues, often preventing larger diagnoses like impacted canines, permanent teeth extractions and orthognathic surgical procedures.
