Comprehensive Treatment for Adults & Children:* There are usually two phases.
- Phase I: Dentofacial orthopedics to develop jaw width, advance jaw nonsurgicaly (using protraction headgears, ALFs, myofunctional apliances, & growth modification in growing children), correct jaw relationship with oral functional appliances. + We recommend early treatment for young children. Early treatment can reduce and eliminate the needs of adult teeth extraction & orthognathic (jaw) surgery in orthodontic treatment (phase II) at later ages. - Phase II: Orthodontics to align teeth * Dentofacial orthopedics & orthodontics techniques are used to help children & adults to achieve broad smiles, straight teeth, and more attractive facial aesthetics. Limited orthodontic treatment:* Regaining spaces for implants and dental bridges, molar
uprighting, etc. * Teeth extrusion for crown restoration. * Correcting a single or several teeth mild crossbites. * Minor teeth alignment. |
