What is twinblok?

Twin Block is a type of functional appliance used in orthodontics for correcting overbite in children and teenagers. It consists of two removable acrylic blocks that fit over the top and bottom teeth and work by repositioning the lower jaw in a forward position. The appliance is designed to be worn for a certain period, typically 9 to 12 months, and then undergoes adjustments as the treatment progresses. Twin Block is a very effective appliance for correcting overbite and is commonly used by orthodontists around the world. The treatment is successful in most cases, and patients usually experience a quick and painless recovery. However, like all orthodontic treatments, Twin Block requires proper care, hygiene, and regular follow-up appointments with the orthodontist to ensure the best results.
