If you’ve been told you or your child may need teeth removed to correct your bite, there’s good news: modern orthodontics offers alternatives. At Alban City Dental & Surgical Centre, we provide the American Orthodontics PowerBar® Class II Corrector, a treatment designed to straighten teeth, correct bite problems, and often avoiding the need for extractions.
The PowerBar is a small orthodontic device that works alongside your braces to gently move the teeth into the right position. It’s especially effective for patients with a Class II malocclusion and increased overbites, where the upper teeth sit too far forward compared to the lower teeth.
The PowerBar is particularly suitable for:
According to Sarah Lee, Specialist Orthodontist: “The PowerBar can work seamlessly with fixed braces – simultaneously improving the bite and alignment of the teeth, and has been a great addition to our patient care.”
At Alban City Dental & Surgical Centre, we know that every smile is unique. By using advanced treatments like the PowerBar, we help patients achieve straighter teeth, healthier bites, and confident smiles – avoiding unnecessary extractions.
If you’re concerned about your overbite or have been advised to consider extractions, contact our friendly reception team with questions or book a consultation with Specialist Orthodontist Sarah Lee today to find out if the PowerBar could be the right solution for you.
A healthier bite and a beautiful smile could be closer than you think.
