At BioDent Smile, we believe healthy smiles start with healthy growth. Myobrace® is a preventive pre-orthodontic system designed for children, typically ages 5–15, that helps address the habits and muscle patterns that can contribute to crowded teeth, poor jaw development, mouth breathing, and improper tongue posture.
Unlike traditional orthodontics that mainly focuses on moving teeth later, Myobrace® aims to support better oral function and natural jaw development earlier in childhood. The appliance is typically worn one hour during the day and overnight while sleeping.
What Myobrace® May Help With
Myobrace® therapy focuses on improving:
- Nasal breathing
- Proper tongue posture
- Correct swallowing patterns
- Lip seal
- Jaw development
- Dental arch growth
- Early crowding concerns
Why Early Evaluation Matters
Crowded teeth are often a symptom of an underlying growth or function issue. Early evaluation allows us to identify whether your child may benefit from a myofunctional or pre-orthodontic approach before more complex orthodontic treatment becomes necessary.
Is Myobrace® Right for Your Child?
Every child is different. During a consultation, we evaluate your child’s breathing, oral habits, facial growth, tongue posture, bite, and dental development to determine whether Myobrace® is appropriate.
Schedule a Myobrace® evaluation at BioDent Smile to learn whether early intervention may help guide your child’s growth and smile development.
