K0 MyoBrace Kids | From 6 to 10 Years | Myofunctional Device for Correction of Oral Habits and Dental Alignment

MyoBrace Myofunctional Device K0 for Children Aged 6 to 10 Years

Myobrace is a functional orthodontic device designed to correct improper oral habits, improve the positioning of teeth, and promote the correct development of the jaw and face in children. Its approach goes beyond simple teeth alignment, focusing also on the child's overall development.
Made from flexible and comfortable material, Myobrace offers a less invasive and more natural alternative to traditional orthodontic treatments, especially when started early.

How Does Myobrace Work?

Myobrace addresses the root cause of dental problems, rather than merely correcting the symptoms. It tackles harmful oral habits in children that often lead to misaligned teeth and improper facial development.
Among these habits are:

• Mouth breathing: Mouth breathing can harm facial development and cause long-term health issues. Myobrace encourages nasal breathing, which is essential for healthy growth.
• Improper tongue posture: The device trains the tongue to stay in the ideal position, on the roof of the mouth, favoring the correct alignment of the jaw and teeth.
• Excessive facial muscle pressure: Using Myobrace reduces the force exerted by the muscles around the teeth and jaw, decreasing pressure that can lead to orthodontic problems.
• Harmful childhood oral habits: Problems such as thumb sucking, teeth grinding, and prolonged pacifier use are also corrected with the device.

Treatment Stages with Myobrace

• Habit correction: The initial focus is on eliminating harmful habits, such as mouth breathing and improper tongue posture, that affect facial development.
• Dental arch development: In this phase, the device helps expand and align the dental arches, creating adequate space for permanent teeth.
• Teeth alignment: As permanent teeth emerge, Myobrace assists in their natural alignment without the need for excessive force.
• Retention: After achieving the desired results, the goal is to maintain alignment and proper habits to ensure long-term stability.
  The treatment requires discipline and cooperation from both the child and the parents. The main steps include:

1. Daily use: Myobrace should be worn for 1 to 2 hours during the day and while sleeping.
2. Myofunctional exercises: The child performs exercises to correct tongue posture, improve nasal breathing, and strengthen facial muscles.
3. Professional follow-up: Regular visits to the dentist or orthodontist are essential to monitor progress and adjust the device if necessary.

Key Features of Myobrace:
