Myobrace® Treatment at Young Dental Care
At Young Dental Care in Aurora, IL, we offer Myobrace® treatment, a gentle, non-invasive orthodontic system designed to correct the underlying causes of crooked teeth and airway problems rather than just straightening teeth.
Myobrace® is ideal for children and teens whose oral habits or jaw development may impact their breathing, facial growth, or dental alignment. By addressing these root causes early, we can support healthy airway development, proper tongue posture, and long-term smile stability.
How Myobrace® Treatment Works
Myobrace® appliances are designed to work with natural growth and oral function. Treatment focuses on correcting oral habits and guiding jaw development rather than relying solely on braces later in life.
During treatment, your child may use Myobrace® to:
- Encourage nasal breathing instead of mouth breathing
- Train correct tongue posture against the roof of the mouth
- Promote balanced jaw growth and improved facial development
- Gently align teeth without invasive appliances
- Reduce the likelihood of crowded teeth or bite problems
Treatment is often combined with airway-focused preventive strategies to maximize results and improve overall oral and systemic health.
Why Myobrace® is Different From Traditional Braces
Unlike traditional braces that focus only on moving teeth, Myobrace® works holistically by addressing:
- Oral habits: Tongue thrust, mouth breathing, or improper swallowing
- Airway development: Supporting nasal breathing and jaw space
- Facial growth: Guiding natural development to reduce future orthodontic complexity
This preventive, habit-based approach helps children achieve healthier smiles, improved airway function, and more stable orthodontic results.
Benefits of Myobrace® Treatment
- Supports airway health and proper nasal breathing
- Reduces risk of crowding and bite issues
- Encourages proper tongue posture and oral habits
- Non-invasive and removable appliances that work with natural growth

By focusing on underlying causes, Myobrace® helps children grow into healthy, confident smiles without the trauma or complexity of traditional early orthodontic interventions.
