Forsus™ Class II Correctors
You can provide a proven, efficient, esthetic Class II correction treatment choice
for your patients – one that works 24/7 with no patient compliance required.
Forsus Class II Correctors are an effective alternative to headgear and elastics that
can be added at any time, with or without molar bands. It’s easy to see why more
than one million patients have used Forsus appliances in treatment, with beautiful,
predictable results.
Forsus Class II Correctors are a study in efficiency that eliminates
time-consuming laboratory setup. Attach the Forsus appliance to the
upper molars and lower arch, creating a mesial force on the lower arch
and a distal force on the upper arch. Long-lasting, consistent forces
mean a more predictable outcome for your patients.
Product Benefits:
• Esthetic – no more headgear
• Out-of-the-box solution – no labs required
• Use with or without molar bands
• Efficient treatment that works 24/7
The Forsus Class II
Corrector is fatigue
resistant to perform reliably
throughout the course of treatment.
Best of all, as an intra-oral corrector,
it is out of sight, making it your choice
for esthetic Class II correction.
The L-pin module allows for more
flexible installation options and
movement in the mouth. It can be
used with a gingival or occlusal
headgear tube. The left and right
sides are universal. It is also used
with the Forsus Wire Mount,
permitting installation without a
molar tube.
