Forsus™ Fatigue Resistant Device
Efficient, Reliable Class II Correction
The Forsus Fatigue Resistant Device promotes growth in adolescents, helping to reduce excessive overbites, improve the fit of the teeth, and in some cases help prevent the need for jaw surgery.
Benefits of Forsus™
Simple
Your Forsus appliance is installed in one appointment and does not require additional lab work, so you can begin treatment right away. There are no daily adjustments because the appliance provides a continuous, light force to guide your jaw and teeth into their correct positions.
Comfortable
Forsus has a low profile design and does not bow into the cheek like some other Class II correction appliances. It allows for a full range of motion, so speech and eating habits are not significantly affected. Another major benefit is that no external headgear is required. The appliance sits in the back of your mouth, so most people will not even notice it.
Convenient
The open coil spring is designed to be easy to brush clean, and there are no gaps to trap food. You can continue your normal oral hygiene routine without having to clean around a bulky appliance. As with any orthodontic appliance, hard and sticky foods should be avoided, and brushing is recommended after every meal.
Effective
Because Forsus delivers constant force, it works without you having to do anything. Even while you sleep, Forsus is helping guide your jaw and teeth into better alignment. The appliance works with your existing braces and wires, so there is no need to interrupt your treatment plan.
