Removable and functional appliances used in orthodontic treatments, especially in children and adolescents, are devices preferred to guide jaw development and ensure teeth come to correct position. These appliances are in a structure that the patient can put on and remove themselves, thus providing high usage comfort and allowing them to take active role in treatment process.
Functional appliances support functions of jaw muscles to positively affect growth direction of jaw bones. This way, incompatibilities between lower and upper jaw are reduced, facial aesthetics and functional balance are provided. Removable appliances facilitate tooth movement, regulate intraoral pressure by relieving it and eliminate problems in jaw structure.
At our practice, the most suitable appliance type is determined according to patients' needs and personalized treatment plan is created. Regular use of appliances and check-ups during treatment process are of great importance for successful results. Children's active participation in treatment and awareness increases efficiency of treatment process.
Orthodontic treatment with removable and functional appliances can provide ideal jaw and tooth structure without need for surgical intervention. At our practice, healthy smile and proper tooth alignment are aimed with comfortable and effective treatment methods.
