Protect the health of your child's smile with the specialist team at SOP Kids

Your child’s smile is precious, and at SOP, we want to ensure it is healthy for years to come. We offer personalised, specialist orthodontic care to help your child achieve their very best smile yet.

When should my child first see an Orthodontist?

The Orthodontic Society of Ireland recommends for children to see a Specialist Orthodontist around the age of 7 or 8. At this time, we can catch potential orthodontic issues before they worsen and intercept them at the opportune time.

We may not need to start treatment right away, but we can monitor the growth of your child’s smile and begin treatment when it would benefit them most.

Benefits of early orthodontic treatment

Early orthodontic treatment can save you time and money on complex orthodontic treatments in your child’s teenage years. In fact, early treatment can sometimes do away with the need for later treatment altogether!

Interceptive treatments allow us to guide the growth of your child’s jaws and treat misalignments while they are still minor.

Popular types of orthodontic treatment for kids

Interceptive aligner treatment: is a specialised aligner treatment designed to guide the growth of small smiles. These clear, custom aligners make room for your child’s incoming teeth, and are conveniently removable so your child won’t need to adjust their diet during treatment.

SOP aligners: At SOP, we make our own clear aligners 100% in-house. That means we can customise treatment to your child’s exact needs.

Traditional fixed braces: Our modern brace options are more discreet and comfortable than ever before. In fact, we even offer a clear ceramic option that helps your child’s braces blend in with the natural colour of their smile.

Lingual braces: Lingual braces are completely hidden behind your child’s teeth when they smile. These braces can be a great option for self-conscious kids who don’t want their orthodontic treatment on display.

Functional appliances: We offer a range of orthodontic appliances that can adjust the alignment of your child’s teeth and jaws and prepare them for treatment with braces or aligners. You can find out more during your child’s free consultation.
