A Fun & Natural Way to Guide Your Child’s Smile! 

At Gigichun Dental Group, we believe that a beautiful smile starts with healthy habits! Many dental problems in kids—like crowded teeth, weak jaw growth, and breathing issues—are caused by bad oral habits (not genetics alone).

That’s why we offer Myobrace & Myofunctional Therapy as part of our special “Little Smile Journey” program! With the help of Twinkle the Tooth Fairy, your child will learn fun exercises that help their teeth grow straight and strong—without needing braces later.

🚀 Join Twinkle and begin your child’s journey to a healthier smile today!

 

What is Myobrace?

Myobrace is a soft, removable trainer that helps kids develop the right oral habits, guiding their teeth and jaws into proper alignment naturally. Unlike traditional braces, Myobrace doesn’t force teeth into position—it fixes the root causes of misalignment by training the tongue, lips, and breathing patterns.

🎈 How Myobrace Helps Your Child:
✔️ Encourages correct tongue posture
✔️ Trains kids to breathe through their nose (not the mouth)
✔️ Supports proper jaw & facial growth
✔️ Reduces the risk of crooked teeth
✔️ Helps kids develop strong oral muscles

❓ How does it work?

  • Worn 1–2 hours during the day + while sleeping
  • Paired with fun Myofunctional Therapy exercises

🚀 With Twinkle’s help, kids will practice daily habits for a stronger smile!

What is Myofunctional Therapy?

Myobrace alone isn’t enough—kids also need to train their tongue, lips, and facial muscles! That’s why we include Myofunctional Therapy, a set of simple exercises that help correct bad habits like:

👅 Tongue thrusting
💨 Mouth breathing
👄 Weak lips & open-mouth posture

💡 Our “Little Smile Journey” Workbook makes it FUN! 🎨
Kids follow Twinkle’s step-by-step exercises to:
✔️ Breathe through their nose
✔️ Keep their tongue in the right position
✔️ Swallow properly without pushing their teeth forward
✔️ Keep their lips closed for better facial muscle tone

🎉 It’s like a mini workout for their mouth—led by a Tooth Fairy!

❓ Does Your Child Need Myobrace?

If your child has any of these habits, early intervention is key!

❌ Mouth breathing (instead of nasal breathing)
❌ Thumb sucking or prolonged pacifier use
❌ Snoring or restless sleep
❌ Tongue thrusting (pushing tongue against teeth when swallowing)
❌ Drooling or open-mouth posture
❌ Speech problems (lisp, difficulty pronouncing words)

🌟 Early treatment = fewer orthodontic problems later!

🎤 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the difference between conventional orthodontics and Myobrace orthodontics?

Many people think braces with brackets and wires are the only way to fix crooked teeth. Traditional braces focus on aligning teeth by force, assuming the problem is just a mismatch in jaw and tooth size.

🦷 Myobrace is different! Instead of forcing teeth into place, Myobrace trains the tongue, lips, and breathing to develop a naturally aligned smile. By restoring correct breathing and muscle function, Myobrace helps the jaw and face grow properly—leading to straight teeth naturally!

Not at all! We start with a very soft trainer, so your child will adjust comfortably. Unlike traditional braces, there are no wires to tighten—which means no painful adjustments.

No! Myobrace encourages natural jaw growth by strengthening the tongue, lips, and cheeks. This allows enough space for permanent teeth to align properly without extractions.

No worries! Myobrace is only worn at home—for 1–2 hours per day and while sleeping. Your child won’t need to wear it at school, so they can achieve a beautiful smile without anyone noticing!

Most children graduate from Myobrace in 1.5 to 2 years. However, this depends on how consistent they are with wearing the trainer and doing the exercises. Parents and family support are very important to help kids stay motivated!

The ideal age is around 5–10 years old. The earlier we start, the better the results! If you’re unsure, book a consultation—we’ll check your child’s habits and guide you.

Yes! Many kids experience less snoring and better sleep after using Myobrace. This is because it improves nasal breathing and prevents mouth breathing, leading to deeper, healthier sleep.

Absolutely! In fact, children often become calmer and more focused after starting Myobrace. Proper breathing helps stabilize emotions and improve concentration, which can even help with frustration or hyperactivity.

Family support is key! Encourage your child by:
💬 Talking to them daily about their progress
🎉 Praising their efforts & small achievements

At Gigichun, we believe in making this a fun, rewarding experience for kids—Twinkle the Tooth Fairy will also guide them along the way! ✨

Ideally, treatment starts before age 8. After that, we can still improve oral habits with myofunctional exercises and may combine them with other orthodontic options if needed.

Of course! Many families find creative ways to fit Myobrace into daily routines, like:
🚗 Wearing it during car rides
🛁 Wearing it during bath time
🌙 Using it just before bedtime

💡 We’ll work with you to create a flexible plan that fits your child’s lifestyle!

Yes! Myobrace can be used alongside ENT (ear, nose, throat) treatments. If your child has severe nasal congestion, we recommend consulting an ENT specialist first to help with breathing before starting Myobrace.
