| Digital Splints | ||||||
|
Up to 40% of dental patients today have occlusal pathology. 80% of these patients have muscle imbalances and can benefit from an occlusal splint (Gordon J. Christensen, Occlusal Splints-Predictable, Frequent Use Practical Clinical Course DVD). You can treat this population efficiently and effectively with digital splints from Great Lakes.

| Smart Moves™ Invisible Hard/Soft Anterior Aligner System | ||||||
|
Smart Moves™ is a progressive series of aligners that are less expensive, offer more control, and are customized to your patient’s needs. Smart Moves™ is a less expensive solution for effective anterior tooth movement. Pay for only the setups and appliances needed – there’s not a set price for an entire ‘system’ of aligners that may never be used. Smart Moves™ technology allows greater movement per setup than other aligner systems. So if, greater movement per setup means fewer setups, then fewer setups mean a less expensive aligner system!

|
|||||
| Inman Aligner™ | ||||||
|
The Inman Aligner™ appliances are ideal for quick correction of anterior rotations, crowding, and adult relapse without the need for multiple appliances. The Inman Aligner™ appliances use NiTi coil springs to apply steady, gentle forces to teeth – without the need for costly multiple appliances to complete correction. The Inman appliances achieve controlled, continuous movement of the anterior teeth (2x2). These pre-programmed appliances make adjustments virtually unnecessary. Precision alignment is accomplished with just one appliance.
