ORTHODONTICS
Orthodontics for Children in Valencia
Early detection today means avoiding complex problems tomorrow.
Orthodontics for children is not only about aligning teeth. It is about guiding the growth of the jaw bones, spotting functional problems, and addressing issues in a timely manner that, if left to develop, can turn into far more complex treatments in adulthood.
At Clínica Peydro we see orthodontics for children as a tool for prevention, growth, and health.

What is pediatric orthodontics?
Pediatric orthodontics is the specialty focused on diagnosing and treating dental and skeletal development issues in children.
At this stage the bones are still growing, which lets us act far more efficiently and far less invasively.
That means we can:
Guide the growth of the jaws
Improve the position of the teeth
Support correct breathing and chewing
Correct bite problems
Prevent future malocclusions


Why is it better to have orthodontic treatment in childhood?
Because a child’s bones are still developing, we can address the root cause of a problem rather than just treating the symptoms.
- Simpler, less invasive treatments
- Avoiding complex problems in adulthood
- Better breathing and chewing
- Guiding facial growth in a balanced way
- Less need for extractions or surgery later on

Which problems does pediatric orthodontics correct?
At the practice we frequently treat cases such as:
Lack of Arch Space
When the jaw has not developed enough, the permanent teeth have no room to come through properly.
Mouth breathing
One of the most important factors in facial development. Breathing through the mouth can affect the growth of the palate, the position of the teeth, facial development, and jaw posture.
Crossbites
When the upper and lower teeth do not fit together properly.
Dental crowding
A lack of space that leaves teeth overlapping or out of line.
Bone growth problems
Narrow or unbalanced jaws that affect facial harmony.

Frequently
Asked Questions
At what age can my child start clear aligner treatment?
The ideal age is between 6 and 10, when the permanent teeth start to come through. At that stage we can guide growth and prevent bigger problems in the teenage years.
Are clear aligners for children as effective as traditional braces?
Yes. Clear aligners achieve the same results as braces, with the advantage of being more comfortable, more esthetic, and free of rubbing and sores.
How are the aligners cleaned?
Very easily: they come out at mealtimes and are cleaned with a soft brush and lukewarm water. That makes it possible to keep oral hygiene excellent throughout the treatment.
Will my child be able to eat and speak normally?
Absolutely. The aligners come out to eat, so there are no food restrictions. And because they are thin and clear, they do not affect speech or daily life.
How long does clear aligner treatment for children take?
It depends on the case, but it usually lasts between 12 and 24 months. For growth guidance, treatment can be done in shorter phases.
Are check-ups frequent?
They are usually every 6 to 8 weeks, and in many cases we combine in-person check-ups with digital monitoring for greater convenience.
How much do clear aligners for children cost?
The price depends on the complexity, but at Clínica Peydro Herrero we offer plans from €3,800 and interest free financing.
Why choose clear aligners for children instead of metal braces?
Because they are more comfortable, more hygienic, and more esthetic. Children adapt better, there is no risk of cuts or discomfort, and digital monitoring is more precise.
What if my child loses an aligner?
It is not a problem. At Clínica Peydro Herrero we monitor digitally and can replace the aligner quickly without interrupting the treatment.
