        \n
      • Removable<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Non-Removable<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Each patient’s case is individual. The specialists of our clinic will professionally assess each patient’s condition and, depending on the bite, position of the teeth, and other indicators, will select the most suitable orthodontic appliance. Some of these are discussed below:<\/span><\/p>\n

        Functional Devices:<\/span><\/h3>\n

        Orthodontic treatment sometimes requires special measures to achieve the best results. One of them is a functional device.<\/span><\/p>\n

        These are orthodontic devices for correcting uneven bites by pushing the lower jaw forward, thus creating the correct jaw position. The best time to get help with a functional appliance is around age twelve or fourteen.<\/span><\/p>\n

        Non-Removable Functional Devices:<\/span><\/h3>\n

        These are a means of adjusting the bite by changing the position of the lower jaw. The jaw moves in the right direction, and the tooth’s position also changes at the same time.<\/span><\/p>\n

        These devices and removable functional devices are subject to intensive development growth, most often for adolescents 12-14 years old.<\/span><\/p>\n

        Trainers:<\/span><\/h3>\n

        The trainer has a formulated dental control system that works similarly to an orthodontic wire. The tongue used in the trainer guides the tongue into the correct position, and changes in abnormal swallowing habits occur.<\/span><\/p>\n

        The patient is taught to breathe through the nose. The device creates a small force that gradually pushes the tooth into the correct position.<\/span><\/p>\n

        Braces:<\/span><\/h3>\n

        Teeth straightening with braces is a widely known and popular orthodontic treatment method. The orthodontic wire that connects the braces is precisely attached to the surface of the teeth, and the necessary dental movements are earned.<\/span><\/p>\n

        Invisalign Dental Straighteners:<\/span><\/h2>\n

        Aligners are a revolutionary innovation in orthodontics that combines mobile technology and research results. These mouthguards are made of a thin and transparent plastic that fits snugly over the teeth, making these mouthguards comfortable and almost invisible.<\/span><\/p>\n
