What is Myobrace and Orofacial Myology?

Myobrace is a special treatment system designed to address orthodontic problems by focusing on how the muscles in the mouth and face work. Orofacial myology helps correct poor habits like mouth breathing, incorrect tongue posture, or improper swallowing. These treatments help correct more than just tooth alignment as they enhance your child’s mouth and muscle performance which leads to improved breathing and eating plus better rest at night.

Symptoms of Myofunctional Disorders in Children

Some signs that your child may need myofunctional orthodontics include:

  • Crooked or crowded teeth.
  • Difficulty chewing or swallowing food properly.
  • Delayed speech development or unclear speech.
  • Open-mouth breathing, especially during sleep.
  • Hyperactivity or trouble concentrating, is often linked to poor breathing patterns.

If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s important to address them early to avoid more serious problems later.

How Myobrace and Orofacial Myology Work?

Here’s how Myobrace & Orofacial Myology works to help your child develop healthy oral habits and a beautiful smile:

Our process begins with an assessment to understand your child’s unique needs. Myobrace appliances are custom-fitted to guide teeth into the right position and retrain oral habits. Orofacial myology involves exercises to train muscles to bring the tongue inside; thus, your child learns good positioning of his or her tongue placement and breathing techniques. Together, these treatment facilitates the natural healthy growth of facial structures and jaws.

Benefits of Myobrace & Orofacial Myology

  • Non-Invasive: These are gentle treatments that do not require surgery or tooth extractions.
  • Comprehensive Results: By improving oral habits, your child can enjoy better breathing, chewing, and posture.
  • Better Sleep: Improving breathing patterns can cause people to sleep deeper, and more soundly.
  • Long-Term Health: Prevent further dental problems, therefore maintaining good health.

Early Intervention: Why Matters?

Early intervention offers the opportunity to guide your child’s facial and dental growth at that developmental age. It can also prevent the need for more involved orthodontic procedures in later years of life and set the stage for a lifetime of better health.
