Twin Block Appliance

(1/3) > >>

Bracesluvr:
 I just got fitted with a twin block style appliance for sleep apnea!
 This particular appliance has occlusal coverage with acrylic...but lower mandible advancement comes from an expander screw embedded in the lower “block” that helps to push my jaw forward to open the airway instead of used to widen the arch. I am very excited & will post more as it develops

David-Braces:
Sounds really Interesting.
Would you mind showing a Picture of that appliance?

libtech:
Ooh very nice! Was that through a Dr. Or an Orthodontist?
Yes share some pics. And what color did you get?

Bracesluvr:
I was not able to continue as my dental insurance came up short...the appliance was over 2000.00
I was molded and on my way with it
I’m very disappointed

bracessd:
That's a bummer!
