The goal of orthodontics is to prevent and solve growth and development problems of the bite, face and dental arches in a simple and effective way. And for this to be possible, there are various orthodontic appliances which, within the scope of their functions, are able to restore the perfect smile to the patient. Discover the main models:

mobile device

The mobile (orthopaedic) device is indicated for patients in the milk and mixed dentition (growth phase) stage. Its purpose is to stimulate bone development, allowing permanent teeth to grow in the correct positions. Considered a preventative treatment, it prevents a problem from setting in before tooth growth is complete.

Suspenders

Fixed appliances, the most used today, are considered a corrective treatment for permanent dentition. Because they have different techniques and types, they usually solve any case as long as the process is well planned and executed. In its most traditional form, it consists of metal attachments (glued to the teeth) and elastic bands that hold the metal wire that acts as a guide for the alignment of the teeth.

aesthetic fixed appliances

Technology and the need to make fixed devices more and more discreet have led to the creation of other models of these devices. These appliances are increasingly smaller and with aesthetic materials that approach the appearance of the teeth such as porcelain, polycarbonate and sapphire brackets.

self-connecting device

The self-ligating technique does not require the use of rubber bands (elastic bands), as the brackets have their own device that holds the thread, and is today one of the most modern versions of fixed appliances. Reduces friction between wire and bracket, reducing treatment times and intervals between appointments.

invisible aligners

The invisible device (or invisible aligner) corrects the teeth using a series of removable, custom-made acetate plates, which are indicated for simple cases of alignment and leveling. Its advantages are numerous; it does not use brackets or wires, it is the most comfortable of all and can be removed and positioned whenever the patient deems it necessary.
