Case Gallery

Dr. Jay does ALF and Myobrace appliances on patients. Here are some of the before and after pictures of the patients undergoing treatment are below:

CASE 1

Complete crossbite of front/anterior teeth

Crossbite corrected in 10 months

CASE 2

Posterior crossbite/ underbite

Crossbite correction happening in 3 months

CASE 3

Lower anterior teeth crowding and the lower right canine tooth in crossbite.

Crossbite corrected and anterior crowding getting better

CASE 4

Patient had a gummy smile which is an indicator of mouth breathing. Patient on Myobrace/ ALF treatment, gummy smile disappeared and nasal breathing established.

Before treatment

After treatment

CASE 5

No space for lower anterior tooth to erupt (missing in before picture) and possible future anterior teeth crowding was prevented with arch expansion and helped with eruption of all 4 teeth

CASE 6

Patient’s upper jaw was smaller than the lower jaw and the patient had a smile where she had to close with an effort to bring her lower lip to meet her upper lip. Myobrace and ALF treatment helped with facial esthetics, correcting jaw growth and changing the smile.

Before treatment

After treatment

CASE 7

Patient’s posture changed with treatment because the patient was mouth breathing. Once nasal breathing was established, her forward head posture changed, posture improved from the slouched posture she had before to more balanced posture.

Before treatment

After treatment

CASE 8

Patient had deep bite and narrow upper jaw. Deep bite corrected in 6 months and arch development.

Before treatment

After treatment

CASE 9

Which smile would you like your child to have? Nice wide smile or narrow arch smile? Which leads to many other issues like snoring, sleep apnea later in adult life.

Extremely narrow arch and deepbite (can only see 2 front teeth)

Nice wide arch and deepbite reduced a lot

CASE 10

Before treatment

After treatment

CASE 11

Crowding and narrow arch

Crowding resolved and wider arch form

CASE 12

Loss of vertical height, patient had forward head posture

Vertical height regained and wider arch, Straighter teeth

CASE 13

Crowding of teeth, misaligned

Crowding resolved –happened in 6 months, no wires or brackets on teeth

CASE 14

Early intervention plays a big role, the kid was 7yrs old, we started treating her early, helped facilitate her growth and wider palate helping her sleep better as she had good airway. Patient was having night terrors and sleep disturbances along with snoring. The treatment change was in 4 months.

CASE 15

Severe crowding and loss of vertical height. The change happened in 5 months. When there is crowding and loss of vertical height, patients have forward head posture, forward bending of shoulders and also airway problems. Doing myofunctional therapy along with appliances makes a great change in the life of the kid. Many kids can be treated and corrected when there is early intervention.
