Functional Orthodontic Appliances in Ballina
- Buck teeth and misaligned bites can be attributed to disproportionate jaw growth.
- Your orthodontist may recommend a functional appliance such as a twin block before braces.
- Twin block appliances help normalize jaw growth during pre-teen years (ages 10-12).
- If narrower jaws need widening rather than just guidance, our palate expander guide explains how they work and who they help.
- Made of removable plates for upper and lower jaws, suitable for meal times and sports.
Treatment can be challenging initially, but the long-term results create beautiful, healthy smiles that last a lifetime.
