At Sipes Dental, we are committed to offering innovative dental solutions that cater to the unique needs of our patients in York, PA. One such advanced treatment is the Myobrace System—a preventive pre-orthodontic approach designed to address the root causes of misaligned teeth and jaw development issues. Unlike traditional orthodontics that focus solely on correcting the position of teeth, Myobrace targets the underlying habits that lead to these problems, promoting natural growth and development for a healthier, more aligned smile.
We will guide your child through a series of myofunctional exercises to be performed daily, reinforcing correct oral habits.
While Myobrace is primarily designed for children and adolescents to correct developmental issues, certain adults may benefit. A consultation with our team can determine suitability.
Treatment duration varies based on individual needs but typically spans 12 to 24 months. Consistency in wearing the appliance and performing prescribed exercises can influence the timeline.
In many cases, early Myobrace intervention can reduce or even eliminate the need for traditional braces. However, some patients may still require additional orthodontic treatment, depending on the severity of their case.
The Myobrace appliance is designed for comfort and is custom-fitted to each patient. While there may be an initial adjustment period, most children adapt quickly to wearing it.
Myobrace encourages nasal breathing by training the tongue and facial muscles to function correctly, which can lead to improved airflow and overall respiratory health.
