Early orthodontics for children: the 2×4 technique
from 26 500 ₽
Service description
Pediatric orthodontics at MediLavia is systemic medicine aimed at the harmonious development of the facial skeleton. The 2×4 technique (brackets on the 4 front teeth and 2 molars) is the gold standard of early treatment and effectively corrects bite problems at the age of 7–10.
Our priority is precision and safety. Every treatment plan is based on CT data and an interdisciplinary case review. We assess not only the teeth but also breathing, posture and the child's overall health, working together with pediatricians and ENT doctors.
With the 2×4 technique, tooth position can be corrected in 6–12 months, laying the right foundation for the health of the entire dentofacial system. It is an investment in the child's overall health, backed by international scientific protocols.

Frequently asked questions
Unlike removable plates, the 2×4 technique works continuously and moves teeth bodily rather than just tipping them. This gives a more stable and faster result.
In many cases, early treatment avoids a second stage or makes it much simpler.
Expanding the dental arch often improves nasal breathing, which benefits the child's overall health.
