The Flip-Lock Herbst Solution

Many clinicians have found that treating patients with HERBST technology simplifies the correction of even the most challenging malocclusions.

However, if you are like most orthodontists, chances are you have been discouraged from using a fixed functional appliance because you have experienced frustration over breakage and time-consuming adjustments.

At TP Orthodontics, we eliminated pins, screw, and springs to create the Flip-Lock HERBST design.

The result has been a reduction in chairside emergencies, less breakage, easier activation and faster adjustments.

Simple Design

The Flip-Lock HERBST provides easy activation, extensive range of motion and free lateral mandibular movement for increased comfort. Its unique design ensures normal chewing, swallowing, speech and breathing—which, in turn, lead to better treatment compliance. The innovative Flip-Lock design also reduces chair time patient emergencies.

Easy to Fit

Because of its patented locking mechanism, the Flip-Lock HERBST activates in seconds.

Mandibular growth is facilitated by the use of crimpable spacers. Regular office visits are shorter because you no longer need to remove tubes and pistons with each modification.

Improved Hygiene

The Flip-Lock HERBST eliminates many of the components that are known to trap food particles, making oral hygiene easier to maintain.
