Types of Appliances
The Forsus Fatigue Resistant Device is an alternative to headgear which promotes growth in adolescents, helping to eliminate excessive overbites, improve the fit of teeth, and possibly prevent the need for jaw surgery.
Retainers may be removable or fixed. They hold your teeth in their new, correct positions after your teeth have been straightened. Your orthodontist will instruct you on how to care for your retainer and about the duration of the wear. Wearing your retainer as directed is crucial to prevent regression of your treatment.
A palatal expander pushes against your teeth or palatal tissue. As the expander widens your upper jaw, new bone forms in the center.
The quad is a friendly and more gentle version of the Palatal Expander. It is slow acting and it is non-adjustable. When you achieve the desired expansion, you will wear the appliance for several months to solidify the expansion and to prevent regression.
