MRC Myobrace For Kids -K1 & K2

Myobrace appliances are designed to correct habits, develop the maxilla and mandible, and align the teeth. Each stage focuses on a particular treatment goal.

MRC has pioneered the use of appliances to correct myofunctional habits in growing children and has proven success in orthodontic correction without braces. This 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 for Kids is a three-stage appliance system designed specifically to correct poor oral habits while treating upper and lower jaw development problems. Myobrace for Kids is most effective after a child’s permanent front teeth have come through and before all the permanent teeth have erupted.

 Myobrace appliances effectively train the tongue to position correctly in the upper jaw, retrain oral musculature and exert light forces to align the teeth.

Myobrace - K1

The K1 is made of flexible silicone to adapt to any arch-form and poorly-aligned teeth. It focuses on establishing nasal breathing and myofunctional habit correction. It is soft and flexible which gives the best compliance, adapts to any arch-form and malocclusion, and optimises staying in place at night.

Myobrace K2

The K2 focuses on arch development and continuing habit correction. It features a DynamiCore™ which assists in developing the upper and lower arch form, allowing more room to establish the correct tongue resting position and correct swallowing patterns.
