Orthodontics for children and adolescents
The right braces for every child
Crooked teeth, dental and jaw deformities can have far-reaching consequences for development, health and self-esteem. Here you will find information about the different braces and the possibilities of orthodontics for children and adolescents.
Which braces are right for the individual patient depends on many factors. On the one hand, the type of misalignment is decisive. On the other hand, the braces must fit into the lives of our young patients. While for some it is important that the braces are as invisible as possible, for others removability is a priority.
Good results can be achieved especially when the orthodontic treatment is precisely tailored to the individual professional and personal needs of the patient. Our aim is always to design the treatment in such a way that it can be integrated into the everyday lives of children and adolescents with as few restrictions as possible.
We are your experienced partner for all questions relating to the orthodontic treatment of children and adolescents in Munich-Unterföhring.

Removal braces
Colorful braces for cool kids. In the orthodontic treatment of children and adolescents, certain tasks can be solved particularly well with removable braces. This includes, for example, treating a large overbite or maintaining space after early loss of milk teeth. Find out here in which cases loose braces are particularly advantageous.
Early treatment
As the name suggests, early orthodontic treatment involves treatment at a relatively early stage. This is due to particularly pronounced deviations in the position of teeth or jaws in children. You can find out under what circumstances early treatment is advisable here.
Invisalign braces
Removable, comfortable, transparent and therefore almost invisible. These are the features that our young patients appreciate so much about aligners. Treatment with Invisalign can be an inconspicuous alternative to fixed braces for adolescents. Find out more about how orthodontic treatment with Invisalign works for teenagers.
Fixed braces
Brackets are the classic braces for children and teenagers. They are available in a wide variety of designs. Our patients can choose between classic metal brackets, particularly small and efficient speed brackets and inconspicuous ceramic brackets. You can find out how orthodontic treatment with brackets works for children and adolescents here.
Lingual orthodontics
Visible results without visible braces. This is exactly what makes braces on the inside so popular with our young patients. However, the lingual technique offers numerous other advantages in addition to invisibility. For example, the risk of caries is significantly reduced compared to conventional appliances. We would be happy to inform you about the possibilities of invisible tooth correction for adolescents.
Insufficient space in the jaw
When the position of teeth in children and adolescents is to be corrected, the central questions are often: Is there enough space for all the teeth? How big is the lack of space? And where do we get the space we need? You can get an initial overview of how to deal with the lack of space here.
Sport mouthguard
Sport is fun, important and healthy. This is at least true as long as no injuries occur. In some sports such as field hockey, martial arts and other contact sports, the risk of a dental injury is greatly increased. This can be minimized by wearing a perfectly fitting and custom-made sports mouthguard.
