The development of the bite occurs in interaction with the development of the oral cavity and surrounding soft tissues. Genetic factors, our own habits, and the environment play an equally big role. Myofunctional therapy helps to create a favorable environment for the development of a correct bite at an early age. Multi-level myofunctional tombs together with exercises contribute to the formation of correct habits and create a favorable environment for choosing a correct bite. The expected result is the correct development of the jaws in skeletal pathologies, improved correspondence of jaw size and tooth size, reduced need for treatment with fixed braces and shorter treatment time with braces, if such orthodontic treatment is to be performed.

The main basic principles of myofunctional therapy that affect the formation of a correct bite:

• Correct tongue position at rest
• Correct breathing through the nose
• Correct saliva swallowing technique
• Strengthening of the lip muscles and surrounding tissues

The Myobrace myofunctional brace should only be used at night and a couple of hours before going to bed. By combining the wearing of a cape with myofunctional exercises, it is possible to improve the development of the bite in a comfortable and discreet way.
