Abstract

Removable orthodontic appliances are devices used in the field of orthodontics to correct a variety of dental and skeletal malocclusions. Removable appliances are commonly used for patients with mild to moderate alignment issues, providing a less intrusive treatment option compared to traditional fixed braces. These appliances include retainers, clear aligners (e.g., Invisalign), active plates, functional appliances, and space maintainers, each serving a specific role in treating misalignment, maintaining post-treatment tooth positioning, or guiding jaw development.The effectiveness of removable appliances is con- tingent on patient compliance, as they must be worn for prescribed durations to achieve the desired outcomes.This articles gives a brief overview of the design , usage and different types of removable orthodontic appliances . The article discusses about the basis of classification of removable orthodontic appliances and gives an overview about the removable orthodon- tic appliances to the reader.
