Tad Replacement

The Orthodontic Temporary Anchorage Device (TAD) is a miniature screw that is temporarily fixed to the bone to accomplish difficult tooth movement. In certain cases, TAD’s may reduce treatment time or provide an alternative to surgical correction or implants. Once orthodontics treatment is completed the TAD is removed. the placement and removal of a TAD is a short, simple prcocedure with very minor discomfort afterwards.
