Abstract

An orthodontic device for cranial adaptations envisaged to be allocated between a patient's two dental arches. The device includes a lower vestibular shield () envisaged to engage externally with the dental arch not concerned by the treatment, and a front shield () designed to rest against the incisors. A palatal shield () is provided to strengthen the pressure which the patient applies while contracting the musculature and to allow the maxillae to expand, thereby widening the upper arch. Additionally, the device features an upper lingual shield () equipped with a lingual ramp () envisaged to ensure the tongue remains in a specific well-defined area, at the incisor teeth, and delimited on one side by the device and on the other by lingual pins () present in an aligner () which the patient must wear since the device works in conjunction with the aligner, aided by a median ridge ().
