Frankel orthodontics belongs to the category of functional orthodontic appliances. These appliances are designed to correct various types of malocclusions (misaligned teeth and jaws) by influencing the growth and development of the jawbones and improving the function of the oral muscles.

Frankel appliances are specifically classified as removable functional appliances, which means they can be taken out of the mouth for cleaning and during meals. They are commonly used in the early treatment of children with developing orthodontic problems to guide the growth of the jaws and improve the alignment of teeth

Can Frankel orthodontics prevent teeth from shifting?

The Frankel appliance is a type of functional appliance primarily used for the early treatment of functional and mild skeletal malocclusions in children. It works by acting on the vestibule of the oral cavity, eliminating the adverse pressure of the labial and buccal muscles on the alveolar bone, and promoting the normal development of the dental arch and jawbones. Therefore, the main function of the Frankel appliance is to prevent and correct dental alignment issues by adjusting muscle function and guiding jaw development, rather than directly preventing tooth movement after orthodontic treatment.

To prevent tooth movement in the long term after orthodontic treatment, retainers such as clear retainers or Hawley retainers are typically required.
