Gelb Appliances

Gelb

Gelb – Used to reposition the mandible and to recapture the disk. Fabricated to a wax bite that brings the condyle into an anterior position and increases the vertical opening. Standard design is 2 ball clasps with lingual bar as a connector. 

 

Modified Gelb

Modified Gelb – Alleviates concerns about anterior super eruption by bringing acrylic onto the singulums of anterior teeth.
