The Morelli Lip Bumper White is an intraoral orthodontic appliance made of stainless steel wire with an injected plastic lip shield. Morelli active lip plates are produced with excellent polish and surface smoothness, and are used to reinforce anchorage, move molars and treat labial hypotonia by holding the lower lip away from the incisors. This is the White version without hook.
