Australia Myobrace Trainer TMJ Teeth Trainer For Poor Jaw Habit /MRC Orthodontic Appliance TMJ Myofuctional Teeth Trainer BraceDESIGN OF THE TMJ
1,Aerofoil-shaped base - for joint decompression.

3,Tongue guard - controls the tongue position.
4,Double mouthguard effect - with vertical sides that limit bruxing.
HOW TMJ WORKS TMJ
Appliance works best to relax the cranio-mandibular muscles - for extra-capsular relief. It treats symptoms by decompressing the joint
through its aerofoil shaped base and eliminating the effects of bruxing with its double-mouthguard effect.
Further relief is provided by the change in the resting length of the muscles when the appliance is in place. This treatment assists in
relieving TMJ and cranio-mandibular symptoms, limiting bruxing and grinding, and improves patient comfort.
The TMJ System is comprised of a series of soft intra-oral appliances specifically designed to assist in the diagnosis and symptom relief of
TMJ disorder.
The appliances have a thick section at the back which relieves pressureby gently decompressing the inflamed joints when placed in the mouth. They also automatically correct the alignment of the lower jaw and stretch the tight and painful muscles around the jaws, head and neck area, resulting in an immediate decrease in pain.
Over long periods, this helps to decrease long term pain. Bruxing (grinding of teeth) is also prevented by the patented aerofoil shaped base and
dual moulded design.
Directions for use
The appliance should be used for one hour a day and overnight while sleeping. With good compliance, symptoms should reduce in the first few
days but sometimes several weeks of use are necessary before pain reliefis experienced. Continue to use the appliance for a minimum of 30 to 60
days after which you can determine how much continued use is needed to maintain symptom relief.
OFFERING THE TMJ IN YOUR PRACTICE

Correction plan:
day + night joint correction
TMJ is night-use type, TMD is daily-use type, TMJ+TMD=complete correction
Correction principle
1. Why does it hurt? As shown in Figure 1
Various reasons lead to habitual jaw shrinkage,Causing the mandible to collide into the temporal bone fossa,Too much pressure on the joint socket causes pain
2.Why doesn't it hurt after wearing TMJ/TMD? As shown in Figure 2
Braces will help the patient to open the jaw joint socket to relieve the original huge pressure and correct the oral muscles, preventing the chin
from returning to the wrong position.

The customisable, low-profile design allows for tight and comfortable fit for patients who need to maintain clear speech during the daytime.
The appliances have a thick section at the back which relieves pressure by gently decompressing the inflamed joints when placed in the mouth. They also automatically correct the alignment of the lower jaw and stretch the tight and painful muscles around the jaws, head and neck area, resulting in an immediate decrease in pain. Over long periods, this helps to decrease long term pain. Bruxing (grinding of teeth) is also prevented by the patented aerofoil shaped base and dual moulded design.
