Common Orthodontic Problems in Children and Adults

CROWDING

Dental crowding happens when there isn’t enough space in your child’s jaw, causing teeth to overlap or twist. Early orthodontic care in Go Smile Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics can help guide proper alignment.

OVERBITE

An overbite is when the upper front teeth overlap too much over the lower teeth, which can affect your child’s bite, jaw development, and long-term oral health if not treated early.

OPEN BITE

An open bite means the front teeth don’t touch when the mouth is closed, often linked to thumb sucking or tongue habits in children.

SPACING

Spacing refers to gaps between teeth, which may be caused by jaw size differences or missing teeth. Early evaluation helps determine if treatment is needed.

IMPACTED TEETH

An impacted tooth is stuck under the gums and cannot erupt properly. Early dental exams can detect and treat this before complications develop.

HABITS

Oral habits like thumb sucking or tongue thrusting can impact your child’s teeth and jaw development. Early guidance helps prevent orthodontic issues.

UNDERBITE

An underbite occurs when the lower teeth sit in front of the upper teeth. This bite issue can affect chewing, speech, and jaw growth if not treated early.

AIRWAY ISSUES

Airway issues in children can affect breathing, sleep, and jaw development. Signs may include mouth breathing, snoring, or restless sleep.

JAW SURGERY

Jaw surgery may be recommended for severe jaw misalignment to improve bite, facial balance, and overall oral health.

PATIENT REVIEWS

I am grateful for the wonderful care Dr. Lynne Cataldo provided. She is incredibly kind and patient, and the way she speaks to my kids makes them feel comfortable and safe. She takes the time to explain things in a gentle, child-friendly way, helping them feel that there’s nothing to be afraid of. Thank you for creating such a positive and reassuring experience for them

I had a fantastic experience at Go Smile Group Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics. From the moment I walked in, the staff was warm and welcoming, making me feel comfortable right away. The office is clean, modern, and well-organized, which added to the overall pleasant atmosphere. Simulation of the teeth and what they would look like after braces was very interesting and fun to see!!! Dr Guloy was incredibly professional and took the time to explain every step of the treatment process.

Gorgeous brand new state of the art building. Dr. Guloy and Dr. Cataldo are so sweet and make you feel comfortable every step of the way.

I am beyond impressed with this dental clinic! The doctors here are top-notch. Dr. Guloy and Dr. Cataldo took the time to explain every procedure and made sure I was comfortable throughout my treatment. Their attention to detail and genuine care for patients is truly remarkable. The clinic is clean, modern, and uses the latest technology. I've never had such a positive dental experience before. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone seeking excellent dental care. Five stars aren't enough for this incredible team!

Orthodontics FAQs

How far is your office from Clearwater?

Our office is at 5745 Park Blvd in Pinellas Park, a straightforward drive south of Clearwater — with parking on site.

At what age should my child first see an orthodontist?

By age 7, according to the American Association of Orthodontists. At that age we can spot bite and jaw-growth problems while your child is still developing, even though most baby teeth are still present. In many cases the outcome is simply monitoring rather than starting treatment.

Do you offer both braces and clear aligners?

Yes. We provide metal braces, clear ceramic braces, LightForce 3D printed brackets, and clear aligners including Invisalign and Invisalign Teen. At your consultation we walk through which options suit your child’s specific bite and why.

Do you take my insurance?

We accept all major PPO dental insurances and verify benefits before your appointment — including Aetna, Cigna, Delta Dental, MetLife, Guardian, Florida Blue, GEHA, Ameritas, Aflac, United Concordia, United Health, Mutual of Omaha and SunLife. We are in network with most PPO policies and only certain HMO policies, so call us with your plan details.

What if I don’t have dental insurance?

Our GO Smile Savings Plan is an in-house membership plan built for uninsured families, and we offer monthly financing through CareFund with no credit-score impact to apply. Call (727) 698-6684 and we will go over what fits your budget.

Can my child get braces and dental cleanings at the same practice?

Yes — we are a combined pediatric dentistry and orthodontic practice, so cleanings, fillings, and orthodontic treatment all happen in one office with one coordinated team.

How long does orthodontic treatment take?

It depends on the case. Some limited treatments finish in a few months, while comprehensive braces or aligner treatment commonly runs one to two years. You will get a specific estimated timeline at the consultation, not a generic range.
