Five Star Orthodontic Lab

Space Maintainers
The LVI Functional Holding Arch is a "fixed-removable" appliance used to obtain arch expansion and proper tip, torque, and rotation of molars. It is called "fixed-removable" because while it is fixed for the patient, the appliance fits into vertical sheaths on the molar bands, making it removable for the doctor and resulting in easy adjustment of the appliance. The appliance can be easily removed from the vertical sheaths with a scaler. This versatile appliance can also be used as a space maintainer or to create cross-arch anchorage.

Crowns
The Hawley retainer is the most popular removable final retention appliance. Color designs and decals are often incorporated to encourage patient cooperation. Many variations of the Hawley exist. The basic Hawley consists of Adams clasps on the first molars and a tightly adapted labial bow running from the distal of both cuspids. Five Star uses the highest quality acrylic and monomers greatly reducing appliance breakage. Acrylic is held to a minimum and polished to a smooth finish. Skilled technicians insure the acrylic is well adapted to both the palate and lingual aspect of the teeth. The labial bow is contoured closely to the gingiva in the cuspid areas and hugs the anterior tooth anatomy following the center of the clinical crown. Five Star technicians’ closely monitor occlusal interferences, fabricating the Hawley retainers with patient comfort in mind. Five Star appliance designs are virtually limitless. Patients can choose from a variety of colors and designs. Students love to incorporate school mascots, colors, and decals. Patients often choose their favorite sports team or activity. Five Star has thousands of designs. Check out our design and color chart to see a few of your options!

Orthodontics
Any tray will work, however, trays specifically designed for orthodontics will capture the muscle structure within the vestibule.
Braces
The MARA is a popular fixed Class II correction appliance. Five Star includes lower cuspid or first bicuspid and upper second molar rests to prevent molar tipping while allowing passive eruption of the bicuspids. The MARA is typically designed with a hyrax screw to help develop a narrow maxillary arch. In cases where arch width is normal, a TPA is used to aid in anchoring the molars. The MARA is often designed to stabilize the lower crowns by adding either a lingual arch or lower braces to prevent unwanted mesiolingual rotation of the lower molars resulting from the resting pressure of the elbows. Five Star uses stainless steel crowns with the occlusal surface removed. This technique eliminates ruptures found often when the assemblies are soldered onto traditional molar bands. The MARA’s minimal size and posterior location makes it virtually undetectable. This is particularly attractive to adult patients who are seeking an alternative to the Twin Block or Herbst appliance. Five Star takes the time to round off the distal ends of the elbow assembly to reduce cheek irritation.
