Understanding Functional Jaw Problems

Jaw-related issues often develop during growth or as a result of improper bite alignment. These problems may affect chewing efficiency, facial balance, and even breathing or speech.

Dr Nizar Ishaq provides functional orthodontic solutions designed to guide jaw development, correct imbalances, and prevent future complications—especially when addressed at an early stage.

What Is Functional Jaw Orthodontic Treatment?

Functional jaw treatment uses specialized orthodontic appliances to influence jaw growth and positioning:

Functional Appliances: Guide the lower and upper jaws into a more balanced relationship.
Growth-Modifying Devices: Support proper jaw development in growing patients.
Bite-Correcting Appliances: Improve how the teeth and jaws come together.
Orthodontic Support Appliances: Used alongside braces or aligners when needed.

Each treatment plan is carefully customized based on age, growth pattern, and jaw structure.

How Does Functional Jaw Treatment Work?

Functional orthodontic treatment works by gently guiding jaw growth and positioning during key developmental stages. Appliances are worn for specific periods to encourage the jaws to function in harmony.

Ongoing monitoring by Dr Nizar Ishaq ensures that treatment progresses effectively and adapts as growth occurs or jaw alignment improves.
