Best Children's Orthodontic Treatment in Malappuram

Your Child’s Health & Comfort Are Our Priority at Dr.Subair Orthodontic Centre

Surprisingly, the recommended age to bring your child to a children’s orthodontist in Manjeri, Kerala  is around age 7! Don’t worry, we don’t intend to put braces on your 7 year old. One of the many benefits of bringing your child in at this age is that our Dr.Subair’s orthodontic centre will be able to make an assessment and monitor growth. If there are options for early prevention, your child may not need braces in the future!
