Custom dental appliances are specialized devices crafted to fit the individual needs of patients. These appliances are often used for orthodontic treatment, such as aligners, retainers, or space maintainers, as well as for therapeutic purposes like mouthguards or splints.
The process begins with taking precise impressions or digital scans of the patient’s teeth and jaw, ensuring that the appliance fits perfectly. Custom appliances are designed to address specific issues, such as teeth misalignment, jaw problems, or teeth grinding, and are tailored for comfort and effectiveness.
Unlike off-the-shelf appliances, custom dental devices offer superior fit and function, making them a more effective solution for many dental concerns. Patients benefit from personalized treatment and better results, improving both oral health and comfort.
Custom dental appliances are often made from durable materials such as acrylic, metal, or clear plastics, and are monitored regularly to ensure they continue to meet the patient’s needs.
