Myobrace® FAQs

Common Myobrace® FAQs

What is Myobrace®?

Myobrace® is an orthodontic treatment that focuses on promoting natural jaw development and correcting poor oral habits in children. Unlike traditional braces, Myobrace® is a non-invasive, removable appliance that encourages natural growth to minimize misalignment issues.

How long does treatment take?

The duration of Myobrace® treatment varies depending on your child’s individual needs and compliance with the program. On average, treatment takes between 12 to 24 months. Regular check-ups with Dr. Felicia Mata-Stein at Denthetics LLC will help monitor progress and make necessary adjustments.

My child doesn’t have many adult teeth, are they too young?

Not at all! Myobrace is most effective when started at a young age, even before all adult teeth have come in. The focus is on correcting oral habits and guiding proper jaw development, which can be crucial during the early developmental stages.

When Myobrace® treatment is complete, will the teeth crowd up again?

The goal of Myobrace is to address the root causes of misalignment by correcting oral habits and supporting healthy jaw development. Once treatment is complete, maintaining good oral habits is key to preventing relapse. Dr. Felicia Mata-Stein can provide guidance on how to keep your child’s smile aligned over time.

Are there harmful side effects with Myobrace treatment?

Myobrace is designed to be a safe and gentle treatment option. It is non-invasive and does not use brackets or wires, reducing the risk of discomfort and side effects commonly associated with traditional braces. Dr. Felicia Mata-Stein puts your childs health and comfort first and will closely monitor treatment to ensure everything goes smoothly.

Will Myobrace® treatment be painful?

Most children experience minimal discomfort with Myobrace treatment. The appliances are designed to be comfortable and are typically well-tolerated by children. Any initial mild discomfort usually subsides as they become accustomed to wearing the device.
