Early orthodontic treatment THE IMPORTANCE OF EARLY ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT The ideal time for treatment with LM-Activator™ is in early mixed dentition when the first teeth are changing. By intervening early, the need for further treatment can be significantly reduced and even eliminated. Research indicates that malocclusions in deciduous dentition persist and tend to become more severe as the dentition develops. LM-Activator™ provides soft guidance to teeth and jaws when needed. The results indicate that orthodontic intervention with eruption guidance appliance in the early mixed dentition is an effective treatment modality for malocclusions with Class II or Class II tendency, excess overjet, deep bite, open bite, crowding, anterior crossbite, or buccal crossbite (scissorsbite).
