Carriere Motion

Complex Bite Correction Made Easy

The Carriere Orthodontic treatment approach uses gentle forces and advanced technology to correct your bite quickly and efficiently. The Carriere Motion Appliance is available in clear or metal colours and can be used by patients of all ages. At Cambridge Orthodontic Practice, we use the Carriere Motion Appliance in conjunction with Damon’s self-ligating bracket system or Invisalign clear aligners.

Treatment Process

The Carriere® Philosophy focuses on facial esthetics and harmony for orthodontic treatment planning. Traditional approaches only straighten teeth, but the Carriere approach considers facial aesthetics and long-term outcomes. The Motion 3D® Appliance and low-force braces provide a minimally invasive treatment that shortens overall treatment time and eliminates the need for surgeries and extractions. Patients can achieve their dream smile in just one year.

What Is The Motion 3D Appliance?

The Motion 3D Appliance ensures a fast, effective, and aesthetic first-phase treatment using the latest advanced orthodontic technology. Plus, by jumpstarting your orthodontic care with the Motion 3D Appliance, your overall treatment time is reduced, which means less time in braces.

The average treatment time for the appliance is 3 to 6 months, but it can differ depending on your orthodontic case. When the desired movement is reached, your orthodontist will remove the appliance and place your braces or aligners to complete your orthodontic care.

More Questions?

If you have more questions or need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

What Does A Carriere Motion Do?

The Carriere Motion Appliance is designed to gently and quickly move the upper and lower teeth into a more aligned bite. By providing preliminary alignment before transitioning to braces or aligners, the total treatment time can be greatly reduced when using the Carriere Motion Appliance as an alternative to the Herbst appliance or headgear.

What Age Is Carriere Motion For?

You’re never too young or too old for a better smile! Carriere Motion Appliance is suitable for patients of all ages, from teens to seniors. By aligning the teeth before orthodontic treatment, total treatment time can be greatly reduced with a Carriere Motion Appliance. Our product is an ideal solution for people of all ages who want to have a beautiful smile.

How Long Do You Wear Carriere Motion Appliance?

With Carriere Motion Appliance, wearing time can be shorter than other appliances. You can expect your orthodontist to recommend that you wear the appliance for 8-10 months, with some individual circumstances requiring more or less time. Additionally, check-ups are necessary every 6 weeks or so to make sure that progress is being made.

What Foods To Avoid With Carriere Motion Appliance?

It’s important to be mindful of what you eat and drink while wearing the Carriere Motion Appliance. Avoid anything too hard, sticky, or crunchy like hard candy, nuts, popcorn, gum, etc. Also steer clear of soda and other sugary drinks as this could cause damage to both the appliance and your teeth. If in doubt, ask your orthodontist or dentist for their advice.

How Do You Brush Your Teeth With A Carriere Motion?

Brush your teeth normally with the Carriere Motion in place. You may need to slightly adjust your brushing technique, but for the most part, you can brush as you normally would. Pay extra attention to areas around brackets and wires to ensure proper cleaning of all surfaces. Finally, use a water flosser or dental pick to clean areas that can’t be reached easily with a toothbrush.
