Henry Schein Orthodontics Introduces Carriere® Motion Pro™ Bite Corrector

Latest Addition to the Motion™ Portfolio, Setting New Standards in Orthodontic Versatility and Efficiency

USA: Henry Schein Orthodontics (HSO), the orthodontics branch of Henry Schein, Inc., is expanding its product range with the launch of the Carriere® Motion Pro™ bite corrector. This latest addition to the Motion portfolio aims to redefine orthodontic versatility and efficiency, offering clinicians a novel tool to achieve optimal results within a shorter treatment timeframe.

Innovative Design for Class I Platform

The Carriere Motion Pro™ bite corrector is uniquely designed to address the anteroposterior dimension of a patient’s occlusion, enabling clinicians to achieve a Class I platform within an average of three to six months of treatment. Notably, this is achieved before the placement of brackets or aligners, demonstrating the device’s efficiency in initiating sagittal correction.

Versatility for Class II and Class III Patients

A key feature of the Carriere Motion Pro is its ability to treat both Class II and Class III patients with a single device. The custom-designed drop-in hook enhances treatment versatility, and the wider reinforced cuspid pad hook ensures a consistent distribution of elastic forces. This, coupled with the deep undercut, simplifies elastic engagements and secures the Force Oral Elastics for optimal results.

Efficient and Predictable Treatment

The device’s built-in scribe line, flat faces, straight edges, and a recessed dimple contribute to intuitive and accurate placement. This efficient design aims to provide fast and predictable treatment. The condyle-shaped joint is crafted to facilitate natural and controlled movement, aligning with the orthodontic philosophy of achieving precise and comfortable treatment.

Dr. Luis Carrière’s Influence

The Carriere Motion Pro builds on the legacy of the original Motion appliances, created by Dr. Luis Carrière, who also introduced the SAGITTAL FIRST™ philosophy. This approach prioritizes treating the anteroposterior dimension at the beginning of orthodontic treatment, standardizing, simplifying, and shortening Class II and Class III treatment times.

Industry Perspective and Future Outlook

Christophe Carsault, Vice President and General Manager at Henry Schein Orthodontics, expresses confidence in the Carriere Motion Pro’s potential to advance orthodontic practices. Carsault notes, “We are confident that the new Carriere Motion Pro™ will similarly advance orthodontics and help enhance our customers’ capabilities to achieve more efficient and predictable aligner and orthodontic treatment.”
