3 Way Appliance

The 3-way screw is used to widen and well and lengthen the arch. The anterior section will drive forces forward using the incisors. Alternatively, we can incorporate three individual screws, one to widen and two following the sagittal plane to distalize the posterior section. As with any expansion appliance, we recommend maximum retention with Adams clasps on the 6’s (if erupted) and ball clasps between the pre-molars. You can also incorporate a labial bow to control the anterior incisors and a posterior bite plate to disarticulate the arches providing additional anchorage for the upper appliance.

More About 3 Way Appliance

Also Known As:
3-Way expander, 3-Dimensional appliance
Who Made Me:

The 3-Way maxillary orthopedic appliance originated in the 1980s with the G-Rax expander, which has evolved into the 3-Way 3-dimensional Smart Click appliance. The 3-Way Appliance is designed to provide expansion in three directions: transverse, anterior-posterior, and vertical. It was developed as a more versatile expander for patients who require multidirectional expansion. Introduced in the mid-20th century, this appliance has been refined to offer more precise control over each dimension of expansion.
