Myobrace i3N Orthodontic Appliance: Early Correction of Class III (Prognathism) for Children (Ages 5-12)

The Myobrace I3N orthodontic appliance is an innovative device specifically designed for children aged 5 to 12 who have or are predisposed to developing Class III malocclusion (prognathism), characterized by excessive growth of the lower jaw relative to the upper jaw (underbite). This appliance is part of the Myobrace Interceptive Class III™ system, a preventive and interceptive approach aimed at correcting the underlying causes of orthodontic problems, rather than simply treating the symptoms.

How the Myobrace i3N Works

The Myobrace i3N is a prefabricated, removable appliance made of flexible silicone, making it comfortable for children to wear. It works in several ways to correct Class III malocclusion (prognathism):

• Correction of Myofunctional Habits: The appliance helps to train the orofacial muscles, encouraging nasal breathing, correct tongue placement on the roof of the mouth, and proper swallowing. By correcting these habits, the i3N contributes to the harmonious development of the face and jaws.
• Limitation of Excessive Mandibular Growth: The specific design of the i3N helps to control and direct the growth of the lower jaw, preventing its excessive forward growth and improving the relationship between the upper and lower jaws.
• Stimulation of Maxillary Development: The appliance can also assist in the development of the upper jaw, promoting a more balanced facial profile.
• Comfort and Fit: The flexible material of the i3N adapts to the shape of the child's dental arch, providing comfort during wear.

Indications

The Myobrace i3N is indicated for children aged 5 to 12 who present:

• Developing or genetically predisposed Class III malocclusion (prognathism).
• Incorrect myofunctional habits, such as mouth breathing, atypical swallowing, and incorrect tongue placement.

Benefits of the Myobrace i3N

• Preventive and Interceptive Treatment: Addresses the root causes of the problem, preventing the worsening of malocclusion.
• Minimizes the Need for Future Treatments: Can reduce or eliminate the need for braces or orthognathic surgery.
• Improves Facial Development: Contributes to a more balanced and harmonious facial growth.
• Comfortable and Easy to Use: The flexible material and prefabricated design make the appliance comfortable and easy for children to wear.
• Non-Invasive Treatment: A non-invasive alternative to traditional orthodontic treatments.

How to Use

The Myobrace i3N is worn for 1 to 2 hours during the day and while sleeping. The duration of treatment varies depending on the severity of the case and the child's cooperation.
Regular follow-up with a qualified professional is essential to monitor treatment progress.

Important Notes

• Treatment with the Myobrace i3N should be performed under the supervision of a qualified dental professional.
• The child's cooperation is essential for successful treatment.
• Results may vary from case to case.
