Parents are usually relieved to learn that early orthodontics at Kinser Orthodontics is not about getting braces. It’s about setting your child up for a lifetime of optimal oral health, which is affected by the proper alignment and symmetry of their smile, jaw, and face. Your child’s early evaluation with our pediatric orthodontist in Laguna Niguel and Laguna Beach, CA, is not simply for aesthetics but will help guide the growth and development of their jaw and teeth – preventing more serious problems later.
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that your child’s initial orthodontic evaluation occur by age 7 – the time when adult teeth are erupting. At Kimball Orthodontics, we evaluate erupting teeth to detect issues such as a possible overbite, open bite, crowding, or gummy smiles. We can tell if your child will benefit from early treatment, as many potential problems may not be visibly apparent until prevention is too late. Beginning treatment at this optimal time not only ensures the greatest result but also means less time and expense down the road.
Not sure if your child would benefit from an orthodontic evaluation? We are here to answer any questions you may have about the process!
Treatment at this early stage may not even be necessary. However, it is especially important to schedule a screening with our orthodontist if you notice any of the following conditions in your child:
While parents don’t need to rush into obtaining braces for their young children, some oral health issues can be avoided with early screening and treatment, including:

When your child comes in for their initial consultation, our team will perform a thorough evaluation of their smile and bite. This will allow our experts to determine which type of treatment will be best suited to their needs. We will also take the time to educate you and your child on what to expect from treatment, plus answer any questions you may have prior to beginning treatment.
Your Smile Journey Begins: What to Expect at Your First Visit
Our daughter just got her braces off. The staff is great and very professional. Britney went the extra mile to accommodate our last appointment for my daughter’s retainers.
Thank you for giving my daughter a beautiful smile.
Our daughter just got her braces off and we are so happy with the results. Her teeth look amazing. The staff is so professional and I don’t think they were ever late for an appointment. As a busy mom of three kids this was amazing!
The assistants are kind and really connected with my daughter. My son is still in treatment so he will continue to enjoy the icees after each appointment. Overall, great team and loved the results.
The entire Kinser Orthodontics team was absolutely amazing! From the initial inquiry to a complimentary consultation to leaving with smiles and slushies. The ladies (and doc!) are friendly, professional and fun. Both of my daughters will be getting braces in the next couple weeks and we’re looking forward to our experience at Kinser Orthodontics!
This office is the best! So professional, always on time appointments, and the doctors and staff are pleasant to be around. There is never a question to ask, where I haven’t received a response and explanation. I travel over an hour, just to be seen here, because no won’t trust any other orthodontists with my teeth! Thank you for being awesome!
Best orthodontist appointment I have ever had. My 8 year old asked when he gets to go back!
All 3 of my children, and myself, have received ortho care from Dr. Kinser. I cannot say enough nice things about the quality of care we have received. All of the staff are friendly, kind and attentive. Appointments are easy to make and are on time. Our teeth and smiles all look fabulous!!
Thank you for restoring my teeth straight and beautiful wa they were when I was younger! You are amazing!👏
Excellent experience, would definitely recommend to others. Flexible with days and times. I love that there are 2 offices, so we can really get the day and times that work for us. Love the monthly payments! Takes the sting out of paying for Ortho all at once:) thank you!
All the young ladies and Dr. Kinser are absolutely amazing! Always a great experience at each appointment. So welcoming and friendly. Love my new smile!!
