Fixed appliances are the best and cheapest to correct crossbite In kids
Unique studies performed by Sofia Petran, a dentist and orthodontic specialist at the Department of Orthodontics at Malmo University in Sweden, shows that society could save millions of crowns each year if more children were fitted with fixed appliances.
Calculations indicate that at least ten percent of all eight and nine year olds in Sweden have so-called crossbite. This means that the children’s upper and lower jaws are different in width and do not line up against each other when they bite their jaws together. (Source: Health News from Medical News Today)
