Orthodontics
for children
Early orthodontic treatment can decisively influence the healthy development of teeth and jaw. We support children gently and individually — at Löwenplatz in Zurich.
Early treatment
Detecting misdevelopments early.
Early treatment is a targeted treatment with special, clear braces that begins as early as childhood — usually between the ages of 4 and 9.
Harmful habits
Persistent thumb sucking, tongue thrusting or prolonged use of a pacifier (habits).
Early tooth loss
Loss of milk teeth due to caries or accidents can impair tooth development.
Breathing & swallowing disorders
Often associated with jaw or tooth misalignments, for example with mouth breathing.
Early treatment promotes harmonious jaw and facial development, has a positive effect on chewing, speaking and breathing and can reduce insecurities caused by visible misalignments.
Goals of early treatment
Let them grow up healthy.
Early treatment starts where the jaw and teeth are still growing — for a stable foundation in adulthood.
Guide growth in a targeted way
Guide jaw growth early in a healthy, functional direction.
Space for permanent teeth
Create enough room for the erupting permanent teeth.
Correct functional disorders
Improve tongue dysfunction, mouth breathing and unfavourable swallowing patterns.
Avoid long-term consequences
Reduce or prevent extensive treatments in adolescence or adulthood.
Cost-efficient
Thanks to precise planning and shorter treatment times we work more efficiently — enabling a more cost-efficient treatment.
Pain-free & gentle
With AI-supported planning and biological tooth movements we make the treatment particularly gentle and comfortable.
Aesthetic
The clear trays are discreet and aesthetic — barely noticeable in everyday life and in photos.
Hygienic
Aligners are removable and therefore far more hygienic and easier to clean than fixed braces.
Easy to wear
Comfortable and uncomplicated in everyday life — promoting high wear discipline (compliance) and treatment success.
High acceptance
Particularly well accepted by children and teens — for reliable cooperation throughout the treatment.
Functional development
More than straight teeth.
In children, our treatment not only improves tooth alignment but supports natural, healthy development during the growth phase. Early jaw regulation supports:
Development of the airways
Jaw development
Chewing and function
Speech development
Healthy development of tooth alignment
Development of self-confidence

Early treatment usually begins between the ages of 4 and 9. The goal is to detect and correct misdevelopments of the jaw and teeth early, before they lead to bigger problems.
Early treatment is carried out with special, clear braces. They gently guide jaw growth and create space for the permanent teeth.
Usually 6 to 12 months, depending on the type and severity of the misalignment as well as the individual growth. After the permanent teeth erupt, a further assessment takes place.
It promotes harmonious jaw and facial development, has a positive effect on chewing, speaking and breathing and can reduce insecurities caused by visible misalignments.
For children, orthodontic treatments are often co-funded in the case of a medical indication (health insurance or disability insurance). We assess cost coverage individually and support you with the submission.
From CHF 3'900.–, depending on the individual treatment need. Instalments from CHF 160.– per month over up to 24 months are possible.
