FAQ

What is the purpose of a Herbst appliance?

The Herbst and modern Forsus appliances are specifically created to address moderate to significant overbites where compliance is an issue. They work by gradually advancing the lower jaw forward while moving the upper molars back. These appliances produce dependable outcomes for growing patients.

How long does Herbst appliance treatment typically last?

The length of treatment depends on the patients growth. Typically, patients use their Herbst and Forsus appliances for 8-12 months. At your exam at Paige Orthodontics in Kingwood, Dr. Sebastian Paige will go over in detail the length of treatment of your particular case.
