Herbst Appliance

On Monday, TJ starts round two of braces. This time, he will have the Herbst Appliance installed to correct his jaw aligment. The metal rods are similar to the rubber bands we endured but the treatment time is much much shorter and the rods are permanently installed so the Orthodontist makes the adjustments not the patient by changing out the bands after each meal, etc. This will be an interesting nine months.
