To address the many orthodontic needs of our patients, we offer a variety of other orthodontic appliances designed to complement or enhance your orthodontic treatment. Our dedicated team is skilled in utilizing these specialized tools to ensure the best possible outcomes for your smile.
Types of Orthodontic Appliances We Offer
Palatal Expanders: Ideal for younger patients whose jaws are still developing, palatal expanders gently widen the upper jaw to correct crossbites, alleviate crowding, and create space for emerging permanent teeth. This non-invasive appliance plays a crucial role in early orthodontic intervention.
Space Maintainers: Losing baby teeth too early can lead to space loss for permanent teeth. Space maintainers are used to hold the space open until the permanent tooth is ready to erupt, preventing neighboring teeth from shifting and causing alignment issues.
Retainers: After the active phase of orthodontic treatment, retainers are essential to maintain the new position of your teeth. Whether fixed or removable, retainers ensure that your investment in orthodontics is protected, and your beautiful smile lasts a lifetime.
Temporary Anchorage Devices (TADs): TADs are small, temporary implants used to provide a stable anchorage point for moving teeth in certain orthodontic treatments. They are an innovative solution for achieving precise tooth movement without the need for more invasive procedures.
Herbst Appliance: Often used in growing patients with overbites, the Herbst appliance encourages forward growth of the lower jaw while simultaneously guiding the upper jaw. This appliance can significantly improve jaw alignment and facial aesthetics.
Custom Mouthguards: For our patients engaged in sports, custom mouthguards are recommended to protect your teeth and orthodontic appliances from damage. These mouthguards are designed to fit comfortably over your braces, providing superior protection compared to over-the-counter options.
