ISO Certified Maxillary Malformation Trainer for T4B Tooth Crowding MRC Dental Retainer from Australia

Improves comfort and stability during braces treatment

The T4B improves comfort and stability in fixed orthodontics. It prevents soft tissue trauma from braces, retrains the oral musculature, and treats TMJ disorder. Braces are still the most effective way of straightening teeth, however, they do not address many of the problems causing the crooked teeth. Most orthodontic problems, particularly crowded teeth and an underdeveloped lower jaw, are caused by habits such as mouth breathing and tongue thrusting.

If these habits are not corrected, treatment time in retainers will be increased and, once they are removed, the teeth can crowd up again. Relapse can occur even with the best retainers. Correcting these poor oral habits with the Trainer for Braces series appliances by MRC allows braces to work more efficiently by reducing the pressure of the tongue, cheeks and lips against the braces, while simultaneously correcting the poor myofunctional habits that are the cause of malocclusion.

The Trainer for Braces™ (T4BTM) is part of The Trainer System™ by Myofunctional Research Co.

The T4BTMprotects the soft tissue inside the mouth (lips and cheeks) from irritation by brackets and wire-a major cause of discomfort in the initial stages of orthodontics. In addition, the T4BTMassists in the correction of myofunctional habits that cause the teeth and jaws to develop incorrectly. These include myofunctional habits such as tongue thrusting, incorrect swallowing, and mouth breathing. This improves the effectiveness and stability of orthodontic treatment.
