Myobrace Canberra – Our Principal Dentist Dr Shilpa Kalburgi is your accredited dental provider of Myobrace Canberra – Myofunctional Dentist.

For Kids aged 5-10 years of age, Myobrace can straighten you child’s teeth and jaws by addressing the causes of crooked & crowded teeth, without the need for braces in general. Kids could develop crowded teeth and incorrect jaw alignment. Myoresearch has shown that mouth breathing, tongue thrusting, reverse swallowing and thumb sucking – known as incorrect myofunctional habits – are the real causes of malocclusion. These habits limit the child’s cranio-facial development – resulting in orthodontic problems. To address these issues, Myobrace appliances are worn for just 1-2 hours per day and overnight while sleeping. This gives you child flexibility on when they would like to wear their Myobrace appliance throughout the day.

MYOBRACE® treatment can also lead to better facial development in growing children. The key to this treatment is correcting the position and function of the tongue, obtaining correct nose breathing and retraining the oral muscles to function correctly. Myobrace® appliances effectively train the tongue to position correctly in the upper jaw, retrain oral musculature and exert light forces to expand the jaws and align the teeth.

Goals of MYOBRACE treatment:
• Correct nasal breathing.
• Correct function of oral-facial musculature.
• Correct arch form and tooth alignment.

Myobrace® system trains the tongue to position correctly, encourages correct swallowing and breathing patterns. The effect of the correct tongue position and Dynamicore™ corrects arch form and improves tooth alignment. Myofunctional orthodontics Over the last 20 years Myofunctional Research Co. (MRC) have developed orthodontic appliances to improve the dental and facial development of children from 5 -15 years of age, using myofunctional orthodontic techniques instead of traditional orthodontics. This technique not only straightens teeth (often without braces) but also treats the causes of crooked teeth and incorrect jaw development.

So don’t delay if your child is aged 5 to 10 years old so that our lovely Dentist Dr Shilpa Kalburgi can evaluate your child for early signs of proper jaw development and crooked teeth to clinically assess if your child is a suitable candidate for Myobrace. Please note that COMPLIANCE by your kid to follow wearing of MYOBRACE appliance as instructed by our lovely Dentist Dr Shilpa Kalburgi is very important for MYOBRACE treatment to be effective.
