Choosing the right orthodontic treatment is a crucial step towards your dream smile. At Island Ortho, we guide you through the process, providing detailed insights into traditional braces and the innovative Invisalign system. Each option has unique advantages, and our team will help you make an informed decision based on your needs and preferences. Whether you opt for braces' reliability or Invisalign's discreteness, our goal remains the same: to give you a smile that you'll be proud to show off.

Creating Room for Alignment: The Role of Orthodontic Spacers

Orthodontic spacers, also known as separators, are small rubber bands or metal springs placed between teeth to create space before braces or other orthodontic appliances are installed. These spacers work by gently pushing the teeth apart, making it easier for the orthodontist to fit bands around each tooth during subsequent appointments securely. They are typically left in place for a few days before the braces are applied, allowing the teeth to shift and gradually create the necessary room for proper alignment. Orthodontic spacers play a crucial role in ensuring the success and effectiveness of orthodontic treatment by facilitating the precise placement of braces and other corrective devices.

Unveiling Brilliance: Understanding Orthodontic Appliances

Orthodontic appliances are crucial in correcting dental misalignments and improving oral health. Herbst appliances and expanders stand out for their effectiveness among the various devices used. Herbst appliances are fixed devices commonly used to correct overbites by adjusting the positioning of the lower jaw in relation to the upper jaw. They consist of metal rods and bands that are securely attached to the teeth.

On the other hand, expanders, also known as palate expanders or jaw expanders, are used to widen the upper jaw to create more space for crowded teeth or correct bite issues. These devices are often removable and exert gentle pressure on the upper jaw to gradually widen it. Herbst appliances and expanders are invaluable tools in orthodontic treatment, helping patients achieve healthier, more aligned smiles and improved bite function.
