NEW PATIENTS

Our practice is a Carriere Class II and Class III motion appliance provider.

Class II Motion Appliance

Corrects the bite to an ideal Class I platform first by rotating and up righting the maxillary first molars while moving the posterior segment, from canine or premolor to molars, into a perfect bite.

Simultaneously produces a light, uniform force for distal molar movement.

Independently moves each posterior segment, from canine or premolar to molar, as a unit.

Carriere® Motion™ Class III Appliance

The Motion Class III Appliance provides a new, remarkably easy-to-use, and patient-friendly solution for Class III treatment. The Motion Class III Appliance is a minimally invasive appliance intended to treat Class III malocclusions without extractions, painful orthognathic surgery, or traditionally uncomfortable and obtrusive facemasks. The Motion Class III Appliance is designed to provide predictable results and create a harmonious, balanced profile, all while preserving the patient’s natural features. Intra-oral elastics connect the appliance with maxillary anchorage to activate the mandibular posterior segment and to move it bodily as a block for an ideal Class I malocclusion. Once the ideal platform is achieved, brackets or aligners are then placed to finish the case.

SPEED Braces, also known as self-ligating braces, eliminate the need for the elastics required by traditional braces to straighten teeth. SPEED Braces use an energy-storing component called a ‘Spring Clip’ to straighten teeth. The Spring Clip is ‘programmed’ by your orthodontist when SPEED Braces are placed on your teeth. It then follows the programmed instructions by applying a light continuous force to gently move teeth to their correct position. Only SPEED Braces contain a ‘Super-Elastic’ Spring Clip. The result is greater comfort, and potentially fewer appointments and more ‘SPEEDY’ treatment. SPEED Braces are small; typically 1/3 smaller than traditional braces, and they look great! SPEED’s small footprint results in less food trapping, so good oral hygiene is easier to maintain throughout your treatment.
