Skeletal Class II Correctors

Home  /   Our Services  /   Skeletal Class II Correctors
Skeletal Class II malocclusion refers to a condition where the upper jaw is positioned too far forward relative to the lower jaw, resulting in an overbite. Skeletal Class II correctors, including appliances like functional appliances or headgear, help correct this misalignment. Here are the main benefits of using these correctors:


  1. 1. Improved Jaw Alignment:
  • Skeletal Class II correctors can help realign the upper and lower jaws, leading to better facial symmetry and overall bite functionality.
  1. 2. Enhanced Facial Aesthetics:
  • By improving the relationship between the upper and lower jaws, these appliances can contribute to a more balanced and harmonious facial appearance.
  1. 3. Corrected Bite and Function:
  • Skeletal Class II correction improves bite function, ensuring more effective chewing, reduced wear on teeth, and better overall oral health.
  1. 4. Prevention of Further Dental Issues:
  • If left untreated, a Class II malocclusion can lead to problems like jaw pain (TMJ disorders), excessive tooth wear, and even gum issues. Correcting it early can help prevent these complications.
  1. 5. Reduced Risk of Tooth Damage:
  • A misaligned bite can cause abnormal tooth contact, which may lead to tooth chipping, cracking, or excessive wear. Correcting the skeletal issue reduces this risk.
  1. 6. Better Speech and Function:
  • Malocclusion can sometimes affect speech patterns. By improving bite alignment, it can also lead to clearer speech and more comfortable jaw movement.
  1. 7. Improved Self-confidence:
  • People with skeletal Class II malocclusion may experience self-esteem issues due to the appearance of their smile. Correction can enhance self-confidence by improving both aesthetics and functionality.
  1. 8. Non-Surgical Option:
  • For patients still growing, skeletal Class II correctors can be effective alternatives to surgery for correcting jaw discrepancies. They harness the natural growth potential of the jaw.
