Myobrace

Who is Myobrace For?

Myobrace is for anyone – children or adults – with crowded teeth or overbites or alignment issues causing teeth or airway problems such as difficulty breathing and sleep apnea. With Myobrace, Our Dentist addresses the cause of crooked teeth, often due to poor oral habits such as mouth breathing, reverse swallowing or thumb sucking. Myobrace addresses the causes of crowding at the same time as addressing airway issues.

Our patients can enjoy the benefits of straightening teeth in a natural way with great results in alignment.

Starting Early

Unlike traditional orthodontics where we wait until the child has all their adult teeth at around 12 years of age, the Myobrace system takes advantage of correcting habits and making use of the growth potential in children as young as three. However, the ideal age group for starting is between five and ten, when the child is old enough to understand and change habits.

With Myobrace, Our Dental team can identify and treat issues earlier than usual, as well as later for pre-teens, teens and adults.

What To Expect

At your initial consultation, Our Dental team starts with an information session where she and the team will answer any questions you might have. A full evaluation with photos and X-rays follows.

Once we have all the information we need, the second consultation will be to provide a comprehensive treatment plan, where we discuss the treatment process and cost involved. Once you are happy to proceed we issue appliances, which go hand in hand with muscle training activities.

Treatment generally involves appliance wear for one or two hours a day plus overnight, and that occurs concurrently with monthly muscle training activity sessions.
