Small appliances. Big impact.

Problem: Bite misalignment, such as overbite or underbite, can cause difficulty in chewing, speech issues.

Solution: Rubber bands apply gentle, consistent pressure to shift the teeth into proper alignment.

Problem: A narrow upper jaw that causes crowding and misalignment of the teeth, affecting bite and overall alignment.

Solution: The expander gently widens the upper jaw, creating space for proper teeth alignment, reducing crowding, and improving bite function.

Problem: A Class II malocclusion (and high canine position), where the upper teeth and jaw protrude ahead of the lower teeth.

Solution: The Carriere, a bar attached to the top teeth, along with rubber bands, guide the upper jaw into proper alignment with the lower jaw, improving bite and facial balance.

Problem: A Class II malocclusion, where the upper teeth and jaw protrude ahead of the lower teeth.

Solution: Forsus springs correct overbites by guiding the upper jaw into proper alignment with the lower jaw, improving bite and facial balance.

Problem: A combination of a narrow upper jaw along with protruding upper teeth (Class II malocclusion)

Solution: The Xbow appliance (Forsus springs x expander) simultaneously improves upper jaw width and reduces overbite, creating the space needed to properly align the teeth and enhance the bite.

Problem: A Class III malocclusion, where the upper jaw and teeth are too far back relative to the lower, leading to an underbite, which can cause difficulty in biting, chewing, speaking.

Solution: Protraction headgear applies gentle pressure to the upper jaw to bring it into a more aligned position with the lower jaw, improving the underbite and facial balance.

Problem: Early loss of primary teeth, which can lead to shifting and misalignment of the surrounding teeth, or space loss for incoming permanent teeth.

Solution: Space maintainers, such as Nance, TPA (transpalatal arch), or LLA (Lower Lingual Arch), hold the space open for the permanent teeth, preventing crowding and misalignment.

Problem: Complex tooth movements, where conventional braces may not provide sufficient support for desired tooth alignment.

Solution: TADs are small pins placed in the bone that provide a stable anchor allowing for precise, complex tooth movements that enhance the effectiveness of the treatment.

Problem: Complex tooth movements, where conventional braces may not provide sufficient support for desired tooth alignment.

Solution: TAD-TPA is used to stabilize the upper teeth and prevent unwanted movement during the course of treatment, ensuring that anchor teeth remain in their ideal positions while moving others.

Problem: Finger sucking habits or forward tongue posture (tongue thrust) can disrupt proper tooth alignment and lead to open bites or other bite issues.

Solution: The Habit Breaker appliance helps eliminate harmful habits by providing a physical barrier that discourages finger sucking or improper tongue positioning.
