Who Requires Myobrace & How They Help?
Genetics is not the only cause for crooked and misaligned teeth. This may arise from poor myofunctional habits like mouth breathing and incorrect tongue and lip position. A way to treat this and prevent this at an early stage is using Myobrace.
What oral problems are Myobrace best at fixing?
As mentioned above, Myobrace fix a plethora of improper and incorrect oral habits like mouth breathing, tongue-thrusting, incorrect lip, and tongue positioning, thumb sucking, and more that may lead to crowded teeth, making you reach out to braces.
Besides crowded and misaligned teeth, Myobrace also drastically improve jaw development, promote healthy eating habits, optimize facial development, and help with overall dental and oral health. Though Myobrace is best advised for children between the ages of 3 to 15, adults too can benefit from using them.
How do Myobrace work?
The treatment of Myobrace includes wearing a series of intra-oral devices made from flexible silicone. It expands the dental arch and retrains the muscles as it exerts gentle light forces so that your teeth and jaw are aligned. It works by creating space for crooked teeth to naturally position themselves and often work without the help of braces.
The treatment of Myobrace lasts up to 18 months, where the patient only needs to wear the appliance for 1-2 hours during the day and throughout the night. The consistent wear of Myobrace coupled with prescribed exercises ensures that teeth are effectively straightened without overcrowding.

Frequently Asked Questions
Myobrace or retainers are non-braces approaches and a pre-orthodontic treatment that help straighten teeth. It allows for natural growth and development without using braces or teeth extraction while aligning teeth.
Instead of waiting for adult, misaligned teeth to appear, you can encourage your children to wear Myobrace for straighter teeth, preventing the use of adult braces. Not only can kids benefit from Myobrace, but adults too can use this device to modify teeth defects. We have listed some of the benefits apart from teeth alignment of Myobrace below.
- Leisurely worn
- Unlike its counterparts like braces and clear aligners, Myobrace need to be only worn 1-2 hours during the day and all night for it to effectively correct teeth positioning. This, along with doing the prescribed exercises twice every day for a couple of minutes ensures that teeth are aligned without the use of braces.
- Avoid relapse
- Even though traditional braces are still the most effective way to straighten teeth, they do not directly address the issue of crooked ones, leading to a higher chance of relapse. However, with the consistent and advised use of Myobrace, one can effectively treat crooked teeth and ensure that aligned teeth stay that way.
- Future-proofed
- Myobrace act as preventive care and correct underlying issues before you may experience the need for orthodontic work and avoid braces in the future. With only a few hours of use, you can see permanent results, ensuring that you achieve the perfect dental arch and address poor oral habits that serve as underlying causes for crooked teeth.
- Treats oral pressure
- Applying pressure to the lips and the tongue with actions such as finger-sucking, fingernail biting, and even simple incorrect tongue and lip positions can shift the natural positioning of the teeth. With Myobrace, you can improve improper oral habits such as these and drastically improve oral health, jaw growth, and teeth alignment.
The treatment duration depends on several factors including type of treatment and the current state of misalignment. Myobrace in general take about 12-18 months.
