removable appliances

Removable appliances are orthodontic devices designed to correct dental issues like misalignment or spacing. Unlike fixed braces, these appliances can be taken out by the patient for cleaning or at certain times. They include options like retainers, which help keep teeth in position after treatment, and expanders, which gradually widen the upper jaw. Removable appliances are personalized to fit the individual's mouth and are typically used in growing children or for minor adjustments. They are effective and comfortable, offering a flexible way to improve dental alignment without the permanence of fixed braces.
