MYOFUNCTIONAL APPLIANCE

---

A Myofunctional Appliance is a type of intraoral appliance that relies on natural forces of the orofacial musculature for its action. It is generally passive and removable in nature.

Orthodontic Headgear is a dental appliance used to correct dental and skeletal issues such as overbites. It is made up of a facebow that is attached to braces or bands on the teeth. The Headgear applies gentle pressure on the jaw and teeth, improving function and attractiveness. Regular use and following the orthodontist's instructions are crucial for effective treatment outcomes, resulting in a healthier, better-aligned smile.

HOW DO THEY WORK?

These appliances are used to correct aberrant growth and function of the dentofacial structures by either transmitting the favorable muscular forces to the teeth and alveolar bone through the medium of the appliance or eliminating the abnormal forces of orofacial musculature.
