The Carriere Motion Appliance is a revolutionary orthodontic device designed to correct bite alignment issues efficiently and comfortably. This appliance is particularly effective in treating Class II (overbite) and Class III (underbite) malocclusions, which involve misalignment of the upper and lower jaws. By addressing these issues early in the treatment process, the Carriere Motion Appliance can significantly reduce the overall time required for orthodontic correction.
How the Carriere Motion Appliance Works
The Carriere Motion Appliance works by gently guiding the upper or lower teeth into a more optimal position, thereby improving the relationship between the upper and lower jaws. It consists of a sleek, low-profile bar that is attached to the teeth using small brackets and elastics. This appliance is typically used in the initial phase of orthodontic treatment before braces or aligners are applied.
Carriere Motion 3D Class II Correction Appliance
This version of the Carriere Motion 3D Corrective Appliance works to address the posterior (back) position of the teeth needed to achieve a Class I correction. In doing so, the process of orthodontic treatments with braces and Invisalign is simplified. Dr. Riesenberger applies the contoured stainless-steel base to fit the patient’s tooth, comfortably and safely. The device shifts the lower posterior region forward, eventually reaching a Class I malocclusion. In a short time (three to five months) the small apparatus is removed, and full-orthodontic treatment can begin.
Carriere Motion 3D Class III Correction Appliance
Similar to its sister product, the Carriere Motion 3D Class III Correction Appliance is affixed to the patient’s tooth. The device shifts posterior teeth backward, eventually reaching a Class I malocclusion. In a short time (three to five months) the small apparatus is removed, and full-orthodontic treatment can begin.
Benefits of the Carriere Motion Appliance
A few of the benefits of the Carriere Motion Appliance have already been briefly discussed, but let’s take a closer look at just how helpful this innovative orthodontic tool is:

Remains Well Hidden
Unless you’re looking for it, you won’t see the Carriere Motion 3D Class II & III Correction Appliances—it’s likely only Dr. Riesenberger will!
