How does a twin block work?

Two removable plates (upper and lower) fit together at an angle, gently posturing the lower jaw forward. Worn full-time – including while eating – they use your child's natural growth to improve the bite, usually over 9 to 12 months.

Best started during a growth spurt (often 10–13)
Worn full-time for best results
Usually followed by fixed braces to fine-tune
