Orthodontic habit prevention/breaking appliance, bonded

14 devices · GMDN 65675

Bonded orthodontic habit prevention appliances are specialized dental tools designed to discourage behaviors like thumb sucking or tongue thrusting in children. By physically obstructing these habits, the devices help protect the natural alignment and development of a child's teeth.

These appliances are typically constructed from metal components like wires, bands, and small spheres that are fixed directly to the teeth or palate. They are intended for use by a single patient throughout the duration of their corrective treatment and are discarded once the therapy is complete.
