Why Do Some Patients Need Braces With Springs?
Braces have a lot of components, including wires, brackets, and rubber bands. However, you might notice some braces that have additional features, too. For example, some people need metal springs connecting their top and bottom rows of teeth. Other patients might have smaller springs running along their wires. So what do braces with springs do- and who needs them?
Why Are Braces With Springs Used?
Springs are used to correct a wide variety of orthodontic issues, from crowding to bite problems. Their compacted design makes them perfect for putting gentle pressure on parts of the mouth. This allows them to help fix alignment issues without the added bulk of other devices (such as headgear). There are a few different types of braces with springs. Let’s discuss the most common kinds.
Coil Springs
Coil springs are placed along the brace’s archwire. They can either run parallel to the wire, or the wire can be threaded through the spring. These coils are used to address spacing issues. They can reduce tooth crowding, or they can also pull teeth together to reduce gapping. Coil springs are used to reduce a patient’s spacing issues, or to maintain a gap in the teeth if a patient has a tooth extraction.
Forsus Springs
Forsus springs are also commonly used in orthodontics. These are wider than coil springs and will connect a patient’s top and bottom rows of braces. Forsus springs help to address jaw and bite issues by putting pressure on different parts of the jaw. Usually, they are used to gently pull one half of the jaw inward while also pushing the other half of the jaw outward. It’s a helpful treatment for patients with underbites and also overbites. Forsus springs work along with a patient’s braces, which can prevent the need for headgear or shorten the time that headgear needs to be worn for.

If you have an overbite why do you have to have braces on the top and bottom and not just on a the teeths that you have rubberbands on?

oml the spring on those molars to make space for the other tooth sucks so much. i had one on for 5 ish months bc one of my molars was rotated 90 degrees and behind the other two molars so far they couldn’t put a bracket on in the right spot so they couldn’t tie it. food always got all stuck up in it and i even had the wire come out of the molar band a couple times. so painful.

Hi! So I can use active coil sprin on small Ni-Ti wire? I thought I can only use it on SS so it doesn’t change the neighbored teeth position. I’m a resident and still learning 😅

Braces in most cases are for cosmetic reasons and not for a life treating situation, so if the patient doesn't feel the need or feel happy with their teeth there is no need for braces! 😉 Thanks for watching and don't forget to like our video that helps a lot!! 🧡🦷

What do you mean by that? if you are in braces treatment it's a slow progression and you are going to see the tooth moving slowly and steady it's not a fast thing from one day to the other...
