We grew this boy's jaws without surgery in 18 months.

He came to us with severe crooked teeth, a weak chin and incompetent lips.

So we trained him to correct his oral posture using the Myobrace system.

As a result, his teeth naturally aligned and his facial structure improved.

Here's how it works:

RIP John, meeting you was the adventure of my life.

After 1 year on the Myobrace system, his facial improvement could be mistaken for surgery.

Unlike conventional orthodontics, which mechanically forces the teeth into alignment,

The Myobrace system resolves the underlying cause of crooked teeth and guides the growth of the jaws.

Pay close attention to your child's sleeping position.

Their health and development depend on it.

When your child's mouth is open during sleep, their tongue can obstruct the airway, stopping their breathing.

These nightly choking episodes deprive the brain of oxygen and continually break sleep cycles.

What devastating consequences can this lead to?

Growth retardation, cognitive deficits, and chronic disease in these children.

Growth retardation happens as a result of the repeated disruptions to sleep cycles, as growth hormone is primarily secreted during sleep.

Regarding the brain, an organ that demands continuous oxygen and deep sleep to function, we see widespread grey matter loss and a 10 IQ point reduction.

How reversible are these?

We don't know.

But the domino effect spurred by the chronic inflammation, impaired immune function and cardiovascular strain we see in these children, risks a lifetime of disease.

Here are 4 potentially life-long problems with braces that everybody should be aware of:

Dr. Chris Farrell, the founder of Myobrace, reveals how he transformed Rhys's severe oral dysfunction, extreme crowding, and malformed jaws.

Astonishingly, by correcting his craniofacial growth, Rhys ended up looking exactly like his twin brother—without surgery.

Let's see how myobrace achieved Rhys's full genetic potential.

@DrAnnaForbes An Inspiration 🙏

[Dr John Flutter @JohnFlutter]

@iainvz @DrAnnaForbes @Orthotropics In Myobrace, this is the foundation of our practice.

Patient compliance is everything, so naturally making them feel as happy and comfortable is incredibly important, especially for children.

It also means you get better results, which you can show off to get more customers.

[Dr John Flutter @JohnFlutter]

@PedoneSeb Exactly, well observed

[Dr John Flutter @JohnFlutter]

1 in 5 children have a deep bite😬

It's common malocclusion often left untreated.

This girl's parents were concerned about the severity of her deep bite but after just 12 months of Myobrace, she achieved this:

She will never need retainers because of her natural correction.

[Dr John Flutter @JohnFlutter]

@PedoneSeb I use Myobrace appliances supported by a breathing programme and lip and tongue postural exercises

@olivertrunkett A soft diet plays a large part in the cause of crooked teeth it’s true

[Dr John Flutter @JohnFlutter]

People seem to accept that nature is careless enough to have given us too many teeth.

So many teeth that we could die...

All the while, our ancestors had plenty of room for their wisdom teeth, and so does every other wild mammal today.

The truth is, we don't have too many teeth, we have shrinking jaws.

And it's a consequence of living a modern lifestyle.

Factors like eating soft foods, the reduction of breastfeeding and chronic household allergies are the real culprits.

How do we know it's not genetic?

Stanford researchers wrote:

'Despite claims that the cause of this jaw epidemic is somehow genetic, the speed with which human jaws have changed, especially in the last few centuries, is much too fast to be evolutionary.'

So, Can Wisdom Teeth Extraction Be Avoided?

Yes, in children.

Using the Myobrace system, we correct the oral habits and use expanders to guide jaw growth, enlarging the jaws naturally to make room for crooked or impacted teeth.

Chewing tough foods can improve jaw structure and facial development.

Not only can it trigger changes in bone density, shape and masseter size to form a squarer jawline,

But more importantly, the increase in muscle tone of the temporalis (on the temple) allows the jaw to remain shut with less conscious effort, ideally none.

This mouth-shut posture is critical for the jaws to reach their full genetic growth and is the principle behind how we alter jaw shape with Myobrace, preventing cases of certain jaw surgery.

Human faces are rapidly changing; only 200 years almost nobody had crooked teeth.

Myobrace guides children's jaw growth to produce naturally straight teeth

[Kevin Stock, DDS @kevinstock12]

Our faces are changing.

In the video clip you can see how my jaws are receding from the profile perspective.

This can also be seen from the front by looking at the eyes.

A developed maxilla (top jaw) results in high cheek bones and a positive canthal tilt (upturned eyes), whereas maxillary insufficiency leads to a negative canthal tilt (downturned eyes).

This is not just about appearances.

This is a facial development issue that leads to malocclusions, including crowding, impacted teeth, and the necessity of wisdom teeth removal.

It can lead to a deviated septum and impaired breathing such as mouth breathing, which subsequently increases the risk of dental issues like cavities and periodontal disease.

Maxillary insufficiency is indicative of a compromised airway, one that collapses when you sleep (i.e. snoring and apnea), causing constant sleep disruption that ruins your sleep and your health.

Causes
• Poor maternal diet in utero
• Bottle-fed formula
• Jarred commercial food
• Soft diet with little to no chewing
• Diet devoid of nutrition
• Mouth breathing and poor oral posture
• Epigenetics

While prevention is the best strategy, there is some evidence you can make small improvements as an adult by remodeling bone via stimulating stem cells at sutures.

How?

1. Diet - Lots of meat and chewing
2. Oral Posture - Mouth closed, tongue rests on palate, nasal breathing

Though expectations should be tempered as most craniofacial changes happen in adolescence.

But these are important to do anyhow, so why not.

[Dr John Flutter @JohnFlutter]

Mouth Breathing is the Opposite of Harmless

1. It's the leading cause of malocclusion

2. It impedes oxygen release from the blood into the body

(this won the Nobel Prize - the Bohr effect)

3. It disrupts facial growth in children creating flatter, longer faces (very common)

...and the list goes on, from dental decay to sleep-breathing problems that decrease life expectancy.

It's why we developed the Myobrace to fix breathing, crooked teeth and facial structure all at the same time: https://t.co/r8wdJccoOP

Braces can cause facial damage.

Crowding is often treated by removing the premolar teeth and closing the gap with braces.

But this is problematic because it pulls the front teeth back, which pulls the jaw bone with it.

Consequently, the patient's jawline may appear weaker, cheekbones flatter, create lip disharmony and the airway may shrink as soft tissue moves back.

This is one of the reasons I'm so passionate about Myobrace, preventing braces and extraction by growing the jaws naturally to make room for crooked teeth.

@iblamelog You need to sit up straight and stand up straight. Initially it will feel awkward but if you hold a good posture it will become more comfortable and then seem normal

[Dr John Flutter @JohnFlutter]

His teeth appear to be naturally aligning after postural correction:

This is virtually impossible according to mainstream orthodontics, especially at age 23.

...after only 8 months.

How did he do it?

By keeping the mouth closed at rest, lips gently together, and tongue on the roof of the mouth.

This is the natural human posture and when we deviate from it during childhood, we end up with crooked teeth.

In fact, postural correction has proven so effective for children's teeth that habit correction treatments like Myobrace can reverse malocclusion before a child is even old enough for traditional braces.
