Orthodontists? Question about Headgear?!
Question: Orthodontists!? Question about Headgear!?
I am moving to another state and changing the orthodontic practice that I go to and am wondering if the fact that your molar bands don't have headgear tubes, does that mean that you won't need headgear!? Is there a possibility that the new ortho could change my treatment plan, or would he continue with the same plan as my old ortho!? Thanks :)
P!.s!. I don't have an excessive overjet but was wondering if they ever use headgear to force the molars back to create extra space b/c I have crowding in my upper arch and wish to avoid extraction!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
your orthodontist will send your profile/report to your new orthodontist it is then up to them if they start gain fresh with you :> well it depends on how bad your overbite is & crowding headgear isnt just used for severe overbite its also used in cases like yours or when the most control is needed and wont come from elastics!. although you say that you dont want any teeth extracted so it depends on your case!.!.!.!.!.!.
but if i was you i wouldnt be too concerned about the fact of avoiding extractions because in most orthodontic treatments that is a key component ecspecially when there is crowdingWww@Answer-Health@Com
