The jaw bones in children are in a developing phase. This is the reason for most dentofacial orthopedic treatments are conducted on children. The treatments conducted before all adult teeth have erupted are known as phase one treatments, where the jaw bones are properly aligned and correct jaw growth is induced using various treatment methods. The second phase of treatment involves braces in order to straighten the teeth. When it comes to treating adults with similar cases of misaligned facial bones, it usually involves surgery since the jaw bones have already hardened. This is because adults possess bones that have naturally stopped growing. Therefore treating adults is generally more of a challenge compared to treating children with similar cases. However, proper surgery can adjust the jaw bones to initiate a proper bite alignment before braces can be used.
