Give your child a head start
Early treatment makes space for permanent teeth and helps them erupt into a better position. It can also improve sleep and breathing, which affects children’s physical, emotional, and cognitive health.
Research shows an association between sleep disordered breathing and a diagnosis of ADHD in children, which can be helped through proper orthodontic treatment. Some treatment options include:
Removable expanders
Fixed expanders
Invisalign First™ for kids
Braces for kids
Collaboration with myofunctional therapists, speech pathologists, and ENTs
We can't wait to meet you
Dr. Ferrari and Dr. Larios have been improving the growth and development of children in the San Francisco Bay Area through orthodontic treatment for years — both are UCSF alumni. Dr. Ferrari completed her fellowship and Dr. Larios completed her residency at UCSF.
Nowadays, patients from all reaches of the Bay Area seek orthodontic treatment from them on the Arlington — with their office hugging the border of Kensington and Berkeley.
Our orthodontists are pioneers in maxillofacial health and use 3D imaging to ensure that your kids' teeth, jaws, and airway are all thoughtfully examined and considered prior to treatment.
Early pediatric orthodontic treatment plays a significant role in jaw development, which can influence your child’s overall facial structure and health.
