Duccio di Buoninsegna (Italian: [ËduttÊo di ËbwÉninËseÉ²É²a]; c. 1255â1260 â c. 1318â1319) was an Italian painter active in Siena, Tuscany, in the late 13th and early 14th centuries. He was hired throughout his life to complete many important works in government and religious buildings around Italy. Duccio is credited with creating the painting styles of Trecento and the Sienese school, and also contributed significantly to the Sienese Gothic style.
Headgear is typically used in growing patients to correct overbites by holding back the growth of the upper jaw, allowing the lower jaw to catch up.
I had to wear head gear when I had braces. Because of my bite and molars coming in, I had braces twice. When I was 8-10 years and then when i was 13. The dr told me that I NEVER had to wear it to school, out of the house, etc.uch less restrictive and intrusive than head gear, which my husband brought up as a possibility. The orthodontist said that head gear was pretty much an outdated form of treatment, and that was 14 years ago. The retainer did the trick! My son is now 21 years old with a great bite.
