If you or your child have been diagnosed with crooked or crowded teeth or a misaligned bite, the skilled staff at Sealy Orthodontics is here to help guide you through the treatment process.
Here are a just few of the orthodontic appliances we offer at Sealy Orthodontics:
Elastics Or Rubber Bands
Rubber bands or elastics improve the positioning of your upper and lower teeth during metal braces treatment. Our team will teach you how to place and use the rubber bands correctly to maximize the benefits.
Palatal Expander
This treatment helps to expand the upper jaw by gently pressing against the molars. Our doctors will instruct you on how and when to adjust the expander. Once the teeth have moved to the correct position, you will need to wear the appliance for some additional time to let your teeth get used to their new position!
Herbst Appliances
This type of appliance is sometimes used to correct a severe overbite. It works by gently pulling on your teeth to move the lower jaw forward.
Retainers
Retainers hold your teeth in their new position once the teeth have been straightened using braces or Invisalign®. Be sure to follow your orthodontist's treatment plan to avoid teeth shifting over time!
