The dental clinic«Astra Dental Clinic» uses such bite correction devices as the ALF device. This technology for the treatment of malocclusion was developed in 1983 by Dr. Darik Nordstrom. The device is a thin hardened wire, which is installed on the inner surface of the oral cavity, with loops acting as a fixation.
Bite ALF uses the principle of cranial osteopathy (it gently affects the bones of the skull, fascia, and meninges), making it possible to return cranial hard tissues to their original correct position. Using the ALF device allows you to gently eliminate various clamps in the bones of the skull, return the natural "breathing" to the skull, thereby improving the development of the facial skeleton and harmonizing the overall background. Correction of bite with such a device is shown to children from 4-5 years of age, including.
The disadvantages of wearing the ALF device are:
-Possible difficulty breathing or vision problems due to bone movement;
-A positive result of treatment is possible only under the supervision of a qualified doctor.
Advantages of the ALF device:
-MILD ACTION, IT HELPS TO GET BY WITH LESS SORENESS, AND ALSO ELIMINATES INCONVENIENCES DURING WEARING;
-Preserves the natural appearance of the face, thanks to the method of fixation (the device is fixed on the inside of the mouth);
-Prostate hygiene, as it is possible to remove the structure;
-Eliminates defects and their development factors;
-Balanced and simultaneous action on the bones of the skull, this eliminates the possibility of recurrence.
