Elastodontic treatment with oral bio-activators in young children

Abstract

Bad oral habits in younger patients must not be ignored. The duration of treatment can differ depending on the severity of the open bite and the patient's cooperation. This study demonstrates the short-term efficacy of these myofunctional appliances in the treatment of atypical swallowing. In order to quickly eliminate factors which endanger healthy development of dento-skeletal structure, it is important to closely monitor patients during their development phase.
