Functional appliances for orthodontics

Functional appliances are removable appliances used to lift and correct Class 2 jaw deformities. These devices will treat patients with Class 2 maxillary and maxillary functional abnormalities. These devices are divided into two main groups, fixed and mobile. The fixed type is fixed on the teeth and the patient cannot remove it. One of the most important advantages of fixed orthodontic appliances is to reduce the need for the patient to place the device on a regular basis. But maintaining oral health in fixed orthodontics is difficult and requires more precision. But in the removable device type, the patient can remove the device and put it back in their mouth at any time. Mobile healthcare is easier than fixed orthodontic appliances, but these devices require more patient collaboration to provide an appropriate response.
