The Different Types of Orthodontic Appliances

Improving ones' confidence begins with restoring the beautiful smile of the individual. With the various orthodontic treatment today, finding the best possible treatment for you can be an overwhelming decision. Fortunately, orthodontists will only recommend the best dental solution for your case. 

Here are some of the more popular types of orthodontic appliances.

Positioners - These types of appliances complete the final stage of the tooth adjustment process in your orthodontic treatment.

Elastics (Rubber Bands) - These appliances improve the fit of the upper and lower teeth when worn according to the orthodontist's prescription.

Retainers - Either removable or fixed, these appliances keep your aligned teeth in place post orthodontic treatment.
