Rules changed in GDP Orthodontics

GDPs who wish to offer orthodontic treatments in their surgery now have the support of your very own team of registered specialist orthodontists. LR Orthodontists are unique by being the only provider who is there for dentists throughout each and every case. They assign a named specialist orthodontist to each and every case for diagnosis and treatment planning.

'LR Orthodontic Technique' is designed for the GDP to be able to offer Limited Treatment Outcome (LTO) Orthodontics in their own practice safe in the knowledge that specialist help is easily available when they want it.

With LR Support they are with the dentist every step of the way, offering specialist diagnosis and treatment planning for patients and specialist support and mentoring during treatment.

LR Original is a custom made appliance that utilises the latest in dental materials to provide a small, discreet appliance to deliver orthodontic forces to the teeth to effectively straighten them. The appliances use light metal spring forces to apply pressure to both sides of the teeth that need aligning. These gentle physio-biological forces mould the teeth into alignment.

LR Advance is a fixed appliance using the highest quality clear brackets combined with ultra light arch wires making it almost invisible. Following your training you will be able to place bands, clear brackets and arch wires and to be able to provide all the necessary information for case selection. This will allow accurate diagnosis and treatment planning to be provided by our orthodontic specialist to whom the case will be assigned and who will supervise all the steps along to completion.

LR Clear is a system of clear aligners which will gently re-position teeth to the agreed outcome. They are not suitable for every case and may take longer to achieve to optimal result but some patients prefer the 'invisibility' of this way of correcting their appearance.
