What is the motion appliance?
The Motion Appliance is a specialised orthodontic device designed to correct bite issues, particularly Class II and Class III malocclusions (overbites and underbites). It is typically used before braces or aligners to align the jaw properly and create a more balanced facial structure. Unlike traditional headgear or lengthy orthodontic treatments, the Motion Appliance offers a discreet, comfortable, and efficient solution for patients of all ages.
How does the motion appliance work?
The Motion Appliance is attached to the molars and connects to the lower arch with the help of elastics. This setup gently moves the upper or lower jaw into the correct position, improving bite function and facial harmony. Patients wear the appliance for a few months before transitioning to braces or aligners, making the overall orthodontic treatment much quicker and more effective.
