Types of Appliances

Here are some sample appliances we use in orthodontic treatment:

  • The Rapid Palate Expander , also known as a "RPE," is an appliance used to widen the roof of the mouth in order to make room for teeth to grow. It is an appliance that requires turning each night for a specified period of time and results in the expansion of the upper arch.

  • The Pendulum appliance is related to the Rapid Palate Expander except you don't have to turn this appliance.

  • The Quad Helix is also an appliance used to expand the upper arch.
