Why is a palate holder used?
The jaw structure of humans is hereditary. Some jaw structures are narrower than they should be, and it is not possible to fit all the teeth. Pre-intervention on these jaw structures facilitates the treatments to be applied after.
With the removable palate, the width of the jaw structure can be created, and comfortable dental treatments can be applied. Crossed teeth also cause breakage and damage to other teeth. Fracture formation is prevented by attaching it to the crooked tooth parts with the palate. Some habits in infancy can disrupt the tooth structure. Thumb sucking of babies puts pressure on the palate and causes the teeth to protrude.
How long is the palate holder used?
With the regular use of the detachable palate, improvement can be seen in the structure of the teeth and jaw in 6 or 8 months. These periods and the course of improvement should be followed by the specialist and the duration of use should be determined. Removal of appliances should be for cleaning and eating. Apart from this, the use of appliances should be continuous. Cleaning can be done with water and a brush.
