Myobrace for Braces - B1 Ling

ESTABLISH NASAL BREATHING AND HABIT CORRECTION

The B1 Ling is specifically designed for patients with lingual braces and focuses on establishing nasal breathing and myofunctional habit correction, things that have significant health benefits to the patient, but are often overlooked by traditional orthodontics.


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

B1 Ling Design Features

The design features of the B1 Ling are ideally suited for the initial correction of any malocclusion (except Class III) to be used in conjunction with fixed lingual braces, while also helping to correct the breathing and soft tissue dysfunctions that are the root causes of the malocclusion.

Directions for Use

The Myobrace® appliance is to be used for one to two hours each day, plus overnight while sleeping. The patient's teeth may become slightly sensitive in the early stages of treatment. This is quite normal, however, if pain becomes excessive, decrease application time with the aim to build it back up once the appliance is accustomed to and sensitivity subsides.

Myobrace for Braces - Case Studies

MRC clinics primarily focus on myofunctional orthodontics and therefore do not typically treat patients with fixed orthodontics alone. Although our customers around the world continue to enjoy the benefits of the B series, we are unable provide one of our own cases that has started and finished in the B series. You may be interested in a case report in the American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopaedics which looked at MRC's appliances in combination with braces. This paper can be found here.
