Myobrace — preventive guidance for healthy jaw development
The Myobrace System is a preventive, pre-orthodontic treatment method that focuses on correcting the underlying causes of crooked teeth and bite problems. Instead of only straightening teeth, we work on muscle function, tongue posture and swallowing habits.
Habits such as thumb sucking, tongue thrusting or incorrect swallowing can negatively influence jaw growth and tooth alignment. By addressing these causes early, we stimulate healthy jaw growth and create sufficient space for proper tooth eruption.
Treatment is most effective during growth, when jaw development can still be positively influenced.
We focus not only on teeth, but also on habits such as tongue thrusting, incorrect swallowing or mouth breathing.
The removable appliance is worn daily for 1–2 hours before bedtime and throughout the night.
We often work together with a speech therapist to train proper tongue posture, swallowing patterns and pronunciation.
Correct muscle function supports natural jaw development and creates sufficient space for proper tooth alignment.
Myobrace may reduce the duration of future fixed braces treatment — and in some cases even prevent it.
