Early Orthodontic TreatmentMiami,FL

Younger children sometimes show signs of an orthodontic issue. It is important to consider possible orthodontic options for smaller patients. Phase 1 orthodontics are early orthodontics treatment options for juveniles who do not have their permanent adult teeth yet.
Early orthodontics are available at Relax and Smile Dental Care in Miami and the surrounding area. The providers at our office can evaluate young children for potential orthodontic issues. Early intervention may benefit children who may have complex bite or orthodontic issues and prevent more extensive dental treatments later on.

Child orthodontics treatment may require a two-phased approach, starting as early as age 7 to correct some issues. Our team can help you determine if your child needs early orthodontic treatment.

Laser-Precise. Medically Administered.

CO₂ laser technology is among the most powerful tools in modern aesthetics — and in untrained hands, among the most consequential. At Relax and Smile, every laser treatment is performed by Dr. Roman, a dental-medical professional with formal training in laser therapy.

From targeted under-eye tightening to full-face resurfacing, these treatments work by triggering your skin’s own regenerative response — stimulating collagen, tightening tissue, and restoring a smoother, more youthful surface.

Precision is everything. And here, it’s guaranteed.

When children still have their baby teeth, they may show signs of needing early orthodontic interventions to correct certain problems. Children with extra teeth or exceptionally crowded teeth may be candidates for early treatment. Teeth that are excessively spaced out may also be a sign that early orthodontics could be beneficial.

Besides the spacing and positioning of the teeth, early orthodontics may also benefit children with bite problems. An underbite, where the lower teeth jut out further from the upper teeth, and a crossbite, where the jaw appears to shift to the side, may be successfully treated with early orthodontics. Genetics is the most common reason why a young child may have a bite problem, but some of these problems may be linked to thumb-sucking, prolonged pacifier use, or bottle use.

During phase 1 treatment, the orthodontist may use a variety of dental appliances to help align the patient's teeth. Phase 1 treatment usually occurs when the child still has their baby teeth. There are also some early orthodontics treatments that use braces during phase 1.

The orthodontist may use space maintainers or spacers to help space out crowded teeth. Expanders are also used during some phase 1 treatment plans to help gently expand the palate. Phase 1 treatment may also consist of appliances such as headgear, retainers, and braces to guide the jawbone and permanent teeth growth into a better position.

According to the American Association of Orthodontists, children should see an orthodontist by age 7. Phase 1 orthodontics typically begins around age 6 and up to age 9. This treatment phase may last between nine and 18 months, depending on the severity and specifics of the child's bite or teeth alignment problems.

Moving Onto Phase 2 of Treatment

After completing phase 1, the next step is phase 2 orthodontic treatment. Relax and Smile Dental Care carefully evaluates each patient's progress during phase 1 before transitioning to the next step. Here is what happens during phase 2 of an early orthodontic treatment plan:

Personalized Treatment Plans

Some patients may need to enter a resting phase before starting phase 2. During this step, the patient may need to only wear a retainer and have monitoring appointments. When the teeth are in the resting stage, the orthodontist will not place new dental appliances or braces.

Section Title

While a two-phased approach to orthodontics can benefit many cases, some patients may be fine skipping phase 1. If the child has already lost most of their baby teeth, it may be better to opt for phase 2 treatment only. Additionally, there are some patients with minor problems that may not need extensive phase 1 intervention.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Quiet Nite a treatment for sleep apnea?

No. Quiet Nite is a non-invasive laser comfort treatment designed to help tone and tighten soft tissues that may contribute to snoring — it is not a treatment for sleep apnea or any diagnosed sleep disorder. Sleep apnea is a serious medical condition that requires diagnosis and treatment by a qualified sleep medicine physician. If you suspect you have sleep apnea, please consult a medical specialist. Quiet Nite is an aesthetic tissue-tightening procedure for comfort purposes only. Results may vary.

What is the difference between PRF Bio-Filler and traditional dermal fillers?

Traditional dermal fillers use synthetic hyaluronic acid or other materials to add volume beneath the skin. PRF Bio-Filler uses a concentrated preparation of Platelet-Rich Fibrin derived from your own blood — making it a biologically-derived approach to volume restoration. Because it uses your own growth factors, it may offer a more natural-looking result with a lower risk of adverse reactions. PRF Bio-Filler is designed for patients who prefer a natural approach using their own biology. Results may vary and individual outcomes differ.

What is SmoothLase® and why does it require a dental provider?

SmoothLase® is a non-surgical laser treatment performed inside the mouth that stimulates collagen production and tightens facial tissues from within — improving skin firmness and softening wrinkles without any external incisions or downtime. Because the treatment is administered intraorally (inside the mouth), it requires the expertise of a licensed dental-medical professional who has the training, equipment, and clinical access to perform it safely. This is a treatment that most aesthetic clinics simply cannot offer. Results may vary.

Can I combine multiple aesthetic treatments?

Yes — many of our treatments are designed to complement each other and can be strategically combined for enhanced results. For example, Targeted PRF Bio-Renewal is frequently added on to a PRF Microneedling Facial, and HairSOME™ is designed as an enhancement to PRF Hair Rejuvenation. Your provider will review your goals during the consultation and recommend a combination approach if it's appropriate for your skin type, health history, and desired outcomes. Results may vary.

How many sessions do I need to see results?

The number of sessions needed depends on the treatment and your individual goals. Some patients notice improvement after a single session, while others achieve optimal results through a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart. For example, PRF microneedling is often recommended as a series of 3 sessions, while CO₂ resurfacing may deliver significant results in one session. PRF hair rejuvenation typically requires multiple sessions over several months. We'll build a personalized treatment plan during your consultation. Results may vary.

Are aesthetic treatments performed by a dentist safe?

Yes — in fact, having a medically trained dental provider perform aesthetic treatments offers significant safety advantages. Dentists have advanced clinical knowledge of facial anatomy, including the precise location of nerves, blood vessels, and tissue structures. This expertise directly translates to safer, more precise aesthetic treatment outcomes. At Relax & Smile Dental Care, all treatments are administered by a licensed medical professional using medical-grade equipment and sterile clinical protocols.

Is there any downtime after PRF or laser treatments?

Downtime varies by treatment. PRF microneedling typically involves mild redness and sensitivity for 24–72 hours, similar to a light sunburn. CO₂ laser resurfacing may require a longer recovery period depending on the depth of treatment. Non-ablative laser treatments like SmoothLase® and LipLase® generally involve little to no visible downtime. Your provider will walk you through exactly what to expect at your consultation based on your specific treatment plan. Results and recovery may vary by individual.

What is PRF and how does it work?

PRF stands for Platelet-Rich Fibrin — a concentration of growth factors and healing proteins derived from a small sample of your own blood. During treatment, blood is drawn in-office, spun in a centrifuge to concentrate the growth factors, and then applied topically or injected into the treatment area. PRF works by stimulating your body's own regenerative processes — encouraging collagen production, cellular renewal, and tissue healing naturally. Because it uses your own biology, there are no synthetic additives or foreign substances involved. Results may vary by individual.
