Bite correction

A beautiful, harmoniously developed and healthy smile is the most important foundation of self-confidence and correct physiological development of a little one. At Inwhite Medical Kids we know for sure that correcting a malocclusion requires not only the highest qualification of the doctor but also the most careful, warm attitude to the psychological comfort of every young patient. Our children's dentistry offers a completely new level of care for health: we use only safe digital diagnostic methods and the gentlest orthodontic technologies to correct the forming bite without the slightest stress, fear or tears. Quality bite correction in children at an early age creates the right conditions for the development of the dental and jaw system and helps to avoid more complex treatment in the future. Practice shows that if a problem is addressed in time and an examination is carried out, the bite can be corrected much faster, more comfortably and more effectively than in adult years.

The formation of the maxillofacial system is an incredibly complex and many-sided physiological stage that requires professional medical monitoring. Caring parents are far from always able to notice on their own the initial, barely perceptible structural changes in the little one's mouth, so the first preventive consultation with an orthodontist is strongly recommended by specialists at the age of five to six. Early, comprehensive and precise diagnostics is the main guarantee that further bite correction will go for the child as easily, naturally and painlessly as possible.

At the very youngest age, orthodontic disorders are very often closely linked to various bad habits. You should definitely plan a visit to our modern centre if your child sucks their thumb for a long time, can't give up the dummy, constantly gnaws pencils or bites their lower lip. Important warning signs that need attention are also a constantly slightly open mouth, difficult nasal breathing, snoring in sleep, as well as situations where the child visually develops an open bite — a specific condition in which the upper and lower front teeth don't meet at all. The sooner our specialists gently intervene in this process, the easier it will be to correct the condition in the child, using gentle playful myogymnastics and special vestibular silicone trays. This makes it possible to guide the active growth of children's jaws in the right direction, completely physiologically and harmoniously.

During the important transitional period when the temporary baby teeth gradually change to permanent ones, children often develop an acute lack of space in the row or noticeable facial asymmetry. Parents should pay close attention if new teeth start growing in a second row, erupt too crowded, rotated around their axis or, on the contrary, with overly large gaps. A strong medical indication to begin active treatment is also when the lower incisors are overlapped too deeply by the upper ones. It is precisely during this dynamic period that treating the bite in children goes especially quickly and effectively, since the bone tissue and jaws are in a phase of active growth. Our team will do everything necessary to correct your child's bite as gently and carefully as possible.

Our specialised dentistry uses only an advanced arsenal of orthodontic instruments recognised all over the world. We develop and select a strictly individual treatment plan in detail for every young patient. High-class bite correction in children within our walls always begins with precise digital 3D diagnostics, which is carried out without using unpleasant moulding materials.

To treat the youngest patients we successfully use removable elastic two-jaw trays (trainers) and classic orthodontic plates. These functional appliances are aimed at effectively training the chewing muscles, normalising the swallowing function and gently widening the jaw arch. Little ones adapt to them well emotionally, since a plate can be decorated by the child themselves with an image of a favourite fairy-tale character, bright colours or shimmering glitter! Such an engaging creative approach instantly turns wearing a medical device into a captivating game, and the child becomes genuinely interested in following all the doctor's recommendations. This is a basic but critically important step towards laying the foundation of children's correct development. Reliable removable appliances correct the bite extremely effectively at the earliest stages of the formation of the dental and jaw system.

In situations where the medical picture requires the upper jaw to be widened reliably, predictably and fairly quickly, we use the high-tech fixed Marco Rosa appliance (also known as the Haas appliance). This structure is gently fixed on the temporary chewing molars and remains completely invisible to others during a wide smile and conversation. The system works extremely delicately, smoothly and completely painlessly, creating the necessary anatomical space for the even and unobstructed eruption of the large permanent teeth. In world practice this is a recognised gold standard that confidently takes the treatment of even the most complex structural bite disorders in children to a completely new level of effectiveness.

When a young patient has already fully or almost fully formed a permanent row of teeth, our doctors turn to time-tested fixed technologies and innovative clear aligners. For older school-age children, and given that every teenager is extremely sensitive about their appearance, we offer the most aesthetic and stylish solutions: for example, a miniature ceramic or clear sapphire brace that looks elegant and hardly attracts any extra attention against light enamel. And if the patient is shy about wearing classic brackets with arches, we use a system of individual clear trays (aligners). Removable aligners provide perfect oral hygiene at home, no restrictions on favourite foods and a strictly predictable digital result of bite correction.

With love and attention to detail we have created a unique space where calm, care and joy reign. Professional treatment of children in our cosy dentistry is a fascinating journey into a fairy-tale world of genuine care and absolute medical safety.

We confidently guarantee:

• A playful psychological approach and gentle adaptation: on principle we don't hold children in the chair by force, we talk, play and become their real, kind friends.
• Advanced world technologies: we use scanners to create precise 3D models of the future smile and digital printing without classic moulds.
• Maximum comfort and absolute painlessness: any procedures can be carried out carefully under relaxing sedation (nitrous oxide) or in completely safe medicated sleep.
• A strictly comprehensive approach: a coordinated team of experts works on the child's overall health.

It is precisely thanks to this approach that parents trust us with the most precious thing in their lives. We know in detail how to properly normalise the chewing function and create a beautiful smile without a single drop of extra stress for the child's nervous system. Within the clinic we offer a reliable solution to functional bite problems of any degree of complexity. Our detailed diagnostics and truly caring attitude help form the child's trust in doctors for life. If you genuinely want to restore children's fragile health and give your child a perfectly functioning bite, our close-knit team of experts is ready to help. Remember that any acquired or congenital conditions can be successfully treated if true professionals take them on.
