Head Gear

Head Gear is an orthodontic appliance that can be attached to dental braces to aid in correcting severe bite problems. The primary purpose of headgear is to prevent or correct an overjet (or overbite) or underbite by slowing or stopping the respective protruding jaw from growing. Stanley Dentistry can help correct misaligned bite conditions using head gear, to make sure you have the proper jaw alignment and are not at risk for developing other dental conditions that may occur due to a misalignment of the upper and lower jaw.
