The combination of dental, facial, and cranial orthopedics aims to create a more functional environment for the teeth and the facial bones and soft tissues that support them. ALF therapy improves overall wellness and function by relying on a holistic approach, for a more beautiful smile and better overall health from the inside out.

What is ALF Therapy or ALF Expansion?
The Advanced Lightwire Functional (ALF) appliance is a flexible wire device that gently guides jaw growth to improve airway health and tongue posture. We normally recommend ALF therapy in conjunction with osteopathic and myofunctional treatment to improve overall health and reduce issues like sleep apnea and TMJ dysfunction while creating a healthy, beautiful smile.
The ALF appliance is not like traditional expanders. It works in harmony with the body, as opposed to more conventional orthodontics, which can be forceful and invasive.
