Commonly asked questions about who needs orthodontics and/or
TMJ treatments.
1. Who needs Functional Jaw Orthopedics?
A:
Surprisingly a huge number of people; children, teens and
adults. Anyone, young or old, could need Functional Jaw Orthopedic
treatments, usually in the form of the more advanced type
of orthodontics known as Functional Jaw Orthodpmtics. Here
is why?
1. Children who have bad bites that trap
and hold their lower jaws back too far, making their chins
appear weak and making their upper teeth seem to stick too
far out (buck teeth), often need some form of Functional Appliance
treatment to make their faces appear normal and their smiles
appear broader and more full.
