Your kid’s first orthodontics exam is right around the corner — we’re here to make sure they have a great first visit.
The American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) recommends that children receive their first exam at the first sign of orthodontic problems or by seven years old. At this age, we can detect potential issues with emerging teeth and jaw growth before they lose their primary teeth.
Our team understands that a trip to the orthodontist can cause anxiety. That’s why we foster a warm environment that puts you and your child at ease when they visit. We’ll welcome you in and answer any questions to make you comfortable before the exam. Our orthodontists:
Understand the importance of early intervention.
Prioritize your child’s safety at all times.
Take a function-first approach to treatment.
Celebrate with you if no treatment is necessary.
Will never treat your kids if there are no issues.
Care about your feelings and are here to listen.

Being brand new to the Vegas area it’s always hard to find your new spots especially when it comes to personal care. For someone who has been scared of going to the dentist/orthodontist I have to say, I was very impressed with Orthobar! For one, this place is beautiful! The details didn’t get overlooked. Cyndie at the front welcomed me with a smile and Asia was very pleasant and made sure I was comfortable before I saw the doctor. I cannot recommend this place enough.

My family’s experience at Orthobar has been top notch since my kids’ first appointments. Dr. Petersen is both personable and professional, and always makes sure to update me on the status of my daughters’ treatments at the end of each appointment. My girls love the assistants and feel very comfortable in their care. The ladies at the front desk are friendly and make scheduling appointments easy. With a team this dedicated, I am always quick to recommend Orthobar to anyone seeking orthodontic care!

We follow AAO guidelines and recommend that children visit our office by age 7 or as soon as you notice bite issues.
Thumb-sucking is a habit that can affect tooth alignment over time. Breaking this habit may prevent future orthodontic treatments.
We treat many childhood cases with braces or Invisalign First, but it all depends on what we find during the initial exam.
Many parents want to wait until their child’s adult teeth grow in, but earlier interventions could prevent common issues like overcrowding and bite misalignment.
We typically recommend a follow-up around six months after your child’s first appointment, but this timeframe may change after the initial consultation.
Every insurance company has a different set of policies, but you may receive coverage through your dental insurance provider.
