A temporary anchorage device, or TAD, is a small titanium-alloy screw that provides a fixed point for orthodontic movement.

How TADs help

The device gives the orthodontist a stable point from which to apply controlled force, helping move selected teeth without relying only on other teeth for anchorage.

Placement and care

Placement is customized to the orthodontic plan. The team explains cleaning and activity guidance, and the orthodontist determines how long the device remains in place.
