My seven year old has only lost her 2 bottom teeth right in the front and they are coming in crooked. Can they start any kind of treatment for her to help her adult teeth come in right or do they have to wait untill she loses all her baby teeth?

HELLO COUNTRY MOM,
AS THE PERMANENT TEETH GROW THEY WILL COME TO THE PROPER POSITION WHEN THEY ALSO BITE AGAINST THE OTHER PERMANENT TEETH. SHE MAY NEED ORTHODONTICS IN THE FUTURE, BUT THIS CONSIDERED AFTER ALL THE PERMANENT TEETH HAVE COME IN.

Usually, they will straighten up themselves. I lost my two front teeth and they came in with a gap. In a few months they closed up and were fine.

she needs to lose her baby teeth first ... and her jaw needs to grow, they may straighten out on her own, or she'll need braces, the best thing is to make sure she flosses and brushes well so that she doesn't get food stuck between them ..
