Myobrace Treatment in Langdon, AB
Myobrace Treatment Near You
Myobrace is an orthodontic option that does not use braces or metal frameworks to address crooked and crowded teeth. Instead, it is a removable oral appliance that’s specifically suited for children ages 3 to 15. Myobrace can reduce the need for more invasive orthodontic treatments by remedying problems early on.
For more information about this orthodontic option, please don’t hesitate to set up a consultation with one of our dentists near you.
Why Would My Child Need Myobrace?
Most children will benefit from Myobrace since it helps address common intraoral problems before they have the chance to become more severe. The overall goal of this treatment is to correct proper tongue position, improve swallowing and breathing through the nose, as well as lip position.
Poor myofunctional health can lead to improper alignment of the teeth and jaw. As a result, it’s essential to tackle these things as soon as possible so your child’s smile can properly develop.
Candidacy for Myobrace
To determine if your child is a good candidate for Myobrace, you’ll need to come in for a consultation with one of our dentists in Langdon, AB. Our experienced team will thoroughly examine their teeth and gums and make a recommendation based on their oral health and needs.
Myobrace is suitable for kids who have poor tooth alignment or lower jaw position (overbite or underbite). It’s crucial to note, however, that compliance plays an important role in the treatment. Since the appliance is removable, it requires both parental supervision and acceptance of the child to wear it. Otherwise, the desired results won’t be obtained.
If you have questions about this, don’t hesitate to let our dental team know.
What the Treatment Entails
First measurements are taken of your child’s mouth and a custom Myobrace appliance is ordered. It must be worn for one to two hours throughout the day and all throughout the night. The appliance corrects an array of dental and oral-related problems such as overcrowding, crooked teeth, and nighttime breathing issues. With the help of Myobrace, the need for future orthodontic treatment can be reduced.
