Myofunctional Appliances In Dentistry

This book provides a comprehensive overview of myofunctional appliances in dentistry, emphasizing their role in the correction of skeletal malocclusions during growth. Myofunctional appliances are designed to modify the functional environment of the orofacial musculature, thereby influencing craniofacial development and occlusion. By utilizing natural muscle forces, these appliances bring about adaptive changes in the jaws, teeth, and supporting structures, making them an essential component of interceptive orthodontics. This book highlights the importance of myofunctional appliances as a biologically sound approach to growth modification. By guiding craniofacial development and improving functional balance, these appliances play a vital role in achieving optimal occlusion and facial aesthetics in growing patients.
