How do we know if our patients need ortho treatment? When is the best age to send them for an evaluation? Is there a time tht is best? What are the concerns we should be looking for in our patients.
In this episode, we will review some of the assessment parts that are important for the dental hygienist to be looking at in addition to a full occlusal assessment that help us determine the risk level of ortho treatment needs.
We are tasked with supporting a healthy dentition for our ortho patients and need to provide education on the signifiance of proper form and function as well as proper care and routine.
