• Comfortable: The plates are custom-made and fit perfectly to the individual’s dental alignment, providing high wearing comfort.
• Adaptable: The appliance can be individually adjusted to the patient’s needs using various screws and springs.

Care Instructions:

• Regular cleaning: Clean the appliance daily with a soft toothbrush and mild soap or special cleaning tablets to remove deposits and bacteria.
• Regular check-ups: Visit your orthodontist regularly to monitor the progress of the treatment and make adjustments as needed.
• Consistent wearing: Wear the appliance according to your orthodontist’s instructions to achieve the best results.
