An orthodontic face bow is a dental appliance that utilizes extraoral traction to guide the position of teeth or jaw bones. By anchoring to the back of the head or neck and connecting to an intraoral device, it is used to shift teeth backward or restrict their forward growth.

These devices are designed for specific orthodontic treatment plans and are typically supplied as specialized metal components. Users should consult with a dental professional to understand how these appliances are integrated into a broader corrective therapy program.
