Types of Treament

Fixed appliances are the most commonly used appliances and are able to produce very precise tooth movement
to achieve ideal results.

Expansion appliances are used to aid the expansion and growth of both the upper and lower jaws when a patient
has an asymmetric growth pattern.

Virtually invisible orthodontic appliances fixed to the back of the teeth

Functional appliances (e.g. the Twin Block) are a popular type of reducing the projection of the front teeth in
patients who are growing.

Clear removable aligners are a relatively new way of correcting milder orthodontic problems following a
comprehensive assessment and discussion of the all the available options.

Almost every patient who has had orthodontic treatment needs to wear retainers. If you do not wear these
retainers then your teeth will go crooked again, and the hard work in wearing the braces will be lost.
