Is Your Child’s Smile Developing Properly?

Free Growth Check For Kids Ages 7+

What Our Patients Are Saying

What You’ll Experience at Your 60-Minute Growth Assessment

Step 1: Complete Orthodontic Records

We take a full set of orthodontic X-rays and high resolution photos to evaluate your child’s bite, alignment, jaw position, and facial symmetry. This is not your average dental exam. This is a comprehensive evaluation of growth and aesthetics.

Step 2: Growth Assessment with Dr. Alex

You’ll meet directly with Dr. Alex, Maui’s board certified orthodontist. He will assess your child’s dental and facial structure, review the images, and answer any questions you may have.

Step 3: In Depth Diagnosis and Treatment Goals

Dr. Alex will walk you through what’s happening beneath the surface from jaw growth to tooth development. Whether it’s simply monitoring or recommending early treatment, he’ll answer all your questions with honesty and care so you feel confident in every step forward.

Step 4: Treatment Options, Time, and Financing

Most kids won’t need any treatment right now and if that’s the case, we’ll simply monitor growth over time. But if early treatment is needed, we’ll walk you through options like Phase I braces and a palate expander. You’ll get a clear timeline and we’ll review flexible, interest free financing so everything feels manageable and stress free.

Step 5. Growth Monitoring or Begin Treatment

For most kids, we’ll schedule a free 6 month growth monitoring appointment. And if early treatment is recommended, we may begin by scanning for a palate expander or other appliance.
