Nite-Guide® - The Nite-Guide® is a comfortable soft plastic appliance that can straighten a 5 to 7 year old child's teeth as they erupt into the mouth by using natural dental eruptive forces. The Nite-Guide® appliance is worn only while sleeping. The appliance can eliminate overjet (buck teeth), and crowding, overbite (where the upper front teeth cover most or all of the lower front teeth when the child closes his/her jaws).

Occlus-o-Guide® - The Occlus-o-Guide® is a soft plastic device, designed for the 8 to 12 year old child containing sockets arranged in such a way that when the patient exercises with the appliance, the teeth are moved or guided into an ideal occlusion (ideal position). The child provides these orthopedic forces by exercising or biting down into the appliance for a minute, and then relaxing for a half minute. These periods should total approximately 3 to 4 hours a day and while sleeping. Problems such as overbite, overjet and crowding or spacing are corrected by means of orthopedic forces which favorably alter jaw growth and jaw relations. As the adult teeth begin to erupt, they are guided into the sockets of the soft plastic pliable appliance. The active treatment period lasts from 4 to 10 months. When the correction has been obtained, the patient's exercise time will be reduced gradually until the appliance is worn only one night a week as a retainer.

Interim "G"® Retainer - The Interim "G"® Retainer is used between Phase I and Phase II orthodontics, such as between limited early treatment (8 to 9 years of age) and later straightening (11 to 12 years of age). The Interim "G"® will successfully retain the correction until the next phase of treatment begins. This is an ideal retainer for young children as it is made with soft material, breathing holes and requires almost no adjustments. The Interim "G"® comes in clear and five colors - Magenta, Orange, Blue, Green, and Purple.

Ortho-Tain™ Positioner - The Ortho-Tain™ Positioner is ideal for finishing up orthodontic cases. For the child anxious to get bands or brackets removed, this appliance can shorten active treatment time by 2 to 6 months. The positioner is also used in cases where there has been relapse after orthodontic treatment is finished.
