Orthotropics in South Brisbane
As your partner in oral health, we believe it’s our duty to offer you the complete dental care you deserve.
As humans continue to evolve and our lifestyles change (especially our diets), the shape of our face and jaw follows suit. Compared to hundreds of thousands of years ago, our current jaws are much more recessed and grow downward.
As a result, oral problems continue to develop.
Thankfully, orthotropics treatment is designed to bring proper growth and harmony to the entire face, with a focus on correcting any unfavorable growth patterns in the jaw—typically relating to a lack of horizontal growth or too much vertical growth.
We’re happy to offer this treatment and philosophy to patients in our practice.
Orthotropic services may include:
- Sleep apnoea treatment or sleep studies as needed
- Orthodontic treatment
- Invisalign
- TMD treatment
- Controlled arch or jaw development
- Myofunctional therapy
- Fixed Anterior Growth Appliance or Removable Anterior Growth Appliance
- Fixed braces
Diagnosis
We pride ourselves on offering patients care plans designed to meet their needs, including a proper, advanced diagnosis to ensure we craft the perfect treatment plan for you.
Before we begin your treatment, we’ll perform a comprehensive assessment including cone beam CT scans to help give us the best view of what’s really going on. This lets us see your jaw, airway, and even assess your sleep quality.
The ultimate goal of orthortopic treatment is to help create the space that your jaw, bones and teeth need to thrive, reducing crowding and helping to bring harmony and balance to the region.
