Myobrace and myology represent an innovative approach to orthodontic treatment that focuses on prevention and correction of oral habits and facial development issues. Unlike traditional braces, which primarily address misalignment of teeth, Myobrace therapy is designed to address underlying causes of orthodontic problems, promoting proper oral function and facial development from a young age.
At Earlwood Dental Care, we believe in the importance of early intervention with Myobrace therapy to guide facial growth and development in children. Myobrace treatment involves the use of removable appliances along with exercises to correct oral habits, such as mouth breathing, tongue thrusting, and incorrect swallowing patterns.
So, what exactly is Myobrace and how does it work? Myobrace appliances are custom-designed to fit comfortably in the mouth and help align the teeth and jaws into their optimal positions. These appliances are worn for a few hours each day and overnight while sleeping, gradually encouraging proper oral posture and function.
One of the key benefits of Myobrace therapy is its focus on addressing the underlying causes of orthodontic issues, rather than simply treating the symptoms. By correcting oral habits and promoting proper facial development, Myobrace therapy not only helps to straighten teeth but also improves overall oral health and function.
In addition to promoting proper tooth alignment, Myobrace therapy also helps to correct the positioning of the tongue, promote nasal breathing, and improve overall airway health. This comprehensive approach to oral care considers the interconnectedness of the teeth, jaws, airway, and facial muscles, ensuring optimal function and aesthetics.
By addressing these issues early on, Myobrace therapy can help prevent the need for more extensive orthodontic treatment in the future, such as braces or extractions. By guiding facial growth and development during childhood and adolescence, Myobrace therapy sets the foundation for a lifetime of healthy smiles.
