Orthotropics®

The treatment philosophy focuses on guiding the natural growth and development of the face and jaws, primarily in children.

By promoting correct oral posture—such as proper tongue position, nasal breathing, and keeping the lips together— Orthotropics® enhances airway function and overall facial aesthetics.

Stage 1: Hang Expancer

Stage 2: Adapt-LGR / TPA Retainer

Our Hang Expancer is designed to widen the upper palate while advancing the upper incisors using a double helix spring.

The Adapt-LGR® is designed to gently guide the lower jaw forward by subtly altering oral posture, aiming to correct facial growth patterns and improve jaw alignment, particularly by influencing the position of the tongue and promoting proper facial development.

The TPA retainer is designed to stabilize the upper dental arch, ensuring it remains in position during eating and physical activities.
