Interventional and minimally invasive treatments
Intervening during growth often allows for the correction or reduction of problems that, if neglected, could require more complex treatments in adulthood.
A serene experience for the child
We pay special attention to the welcome and emotional management of the youngest children, creating an environment that is reassuring and suited to their needs.
Continuing specialist training
Our team is constantly updating to offer effective, safe, and personalized orthodontic treatments based on the child’s age and growth stage.
It's not just a matter of aesthetics
A misalignment of the teeth can affect not only the appearance of the smile, but also some important functions of the mouth.
If left untreated, some malocclusions can lead to:
- Difficulty in chewing
- Changes in the growth of the dental arches
- Greater difficulty with oral hygiene
- Higher risk of tooth decay and gum problems
- Functional and relational difficulties during growth
Early assessment allows for the identification of any problems and intervention at the most appropriate time.
Pediatric orthodontics Recrea for Kids
The most appropriate treatment for each child
Every mouth grows in a different way.
For this reason, before proposing any orthodontic device, we perform an accurate diagnosis, evaluating growth, dental development, masticatory function, and the individual characteristics of the child.
Only after this phase do we develop a personalized treatment plan.
The goal is not just to align the teeth, but to promote harmonious and stable development over time.
What is orthodontics?
Orthodontics is the specialist branch of dentistry that deals with the prevention, diagnosis, and correction of malocclusions and dental misalignments.
At Recrea we adopt an interdisciplinary approach that considers the smile as an integral part of the child’s overall well-being.
For this reason, we also evaluate functional aspects related to:
Chewing
Breathing
Swallowing
Cranio-facial growth
The Recrea approach
Motor-neurological reprogramming (RMNO)
One of the distinctive features of our approach is the Neuro-Occlusal Motor Re-Programming (RMNO), a method that aims not only at dental alignment, but also at restoring proper mouth function during growth.
Each treatment is planned with the aim of promoting the proper development of the stomatognathic system as a whole.
