Dental Appliances
for Patients in Fayetteville, Hope Mills, NC & Beyond

In some patients, different types of dental appliances are used to keep teeth in place. Unlike conventional braces, these appliances are usually removable. In certain cases, they are also used to encourage growth in the jawbone and in turn, change the overall facial structure. Finally, they are used both before and along with fixed appliances.

Removable appliances aren’t used to treat every single orthodontic issue. The knowledgeable and experienced staff at Village Orthodontics can help you determine what method would produce the best results. Timing plays a factor in these cases as well.

Recommendations & Safety Notices

Since dental appliances of this type are typically removable, there is great temptation to wear them less often than directed. However, this will result in your teeth moving back to their original positions, completely negating all the treatment you just completed.

Please remember that your appliance needs care. Also, while you may notice that your abilities to eat and speak are affected by the appliance at first, your mouth will adjust to it.
