FOR ADULTS

FOR KIDS

INCREASINGLY, well-informed parents are forcing the agenda and generating momentum towards non-invasive orthodontic treatment techniques. Rather than consent to the knowledge their children’s teeth may be damaged during a course of traditional treatment and most likely relapse afterwards, they are seeking out more stable as well as earlier preventive options.

To satisfy this demand Myofunctional Research Co. (MRC) has developed an extensive range of appliance, educational and clinical management systems, which offer parents earlier and more natural treatment options as well as provide the dental profession with a new dimension in profitable practice management.

Introduction

Dr Chris Farrell graduated from Sydney University in 1971 having gained a comprehensive knowledge of traditional orthodontic treatment using the BEGG technique. As a result of his clinical experience he became interested in TMJ/TMD disorder and after further research discovered the etiology of malocclusion and TMJ disorder was myofunctional, which contradicted the established view of his profession. Dr Farrell founded Myofunctional Research Co. (MRC) in 1989 with the intent to develop a myofunctional orthodontic system targeted at treating the upper airway

and neuromuscular dysfunction causing malocclusion. Dr Farrell’s Myobrace® and Trainer treatment systems have proven extremely effective at providing early, preventive pre-orthodontic treatment and are now used by dental professionals in more than 100 countries.

Course Topics

• MRC practice management systems and the Myobrace ® Certified Provider program.

• Understanding, diagnosing and treating TMJ Disorder.

Dr Chris Farrell BDS Sydney – MRC Founder & CEO

MYOFUNCTIONAL ORTHODONTICS

THREE in four 21st Century children will develop a malocclusion and often parents, as well as the dental professionals advising them, attribute the cause to hereditary factors where overly large teeth cannot fit into small jaws. However, rather than blame bad genetics for crooked teeth, modern research has produced evidence that points to other causes. Malocclusion does not occur by chance and the most up to date evidence reveals the majority of orthodontic problems are the result of incorrect jaw development caused by upper airway compromise or myofunctional dysfunction. Additionally, the medical profession has recognised the prevalence as well as the detrimental health effects of upper airway dysfunction in modern children, which MRC has identified as a major cause of malocclusion.

MRC’s Myofunctional Orthodontic treatment systems recognises that correcting upper airway compromise and myofunctional dysfunction assists to unlock a child’s potential for natural growth and development. As well as offering the potential for early preventive pre-orthodontic treatment, myofunctional orthodontics can decrease

the severity of malocclusion and often prevent the need for traditional extraction and fixed braces techniques. To cater to the growing parental demand for modern orthodontic techniques, The Myobrace System™ has packaged parent and patient education, habit correction, arch expansion and dental alignment into one integrated system that is easily implemented for better dental and facial growth.

In order to make this system accessible to the dental profession, MRC has produced a series of courses designed to teach practitioners how to recognise and correctly diagnose the causes of malocclusion and poor craniofacial growth in growing children then how to create an apply an effective treatment plan to address these causes. Integral elements of these courses are the components dealing with MRC ’s parent and patient educational systems, which are designed to ensure immediate acceptance of the treatment and a level of patient compliance necessary to obtain optimal results, often without having to utilise traditional extraction and braces techniques.

Ms Seibert graduated as an oral health therapistfrom Griffith University (Qld, Australia in 2009).Since achieving her qualification, she has beenprimarily involved in peadiatric dentistry withher focus on a holistic approach. Seeing a largeamount of children with a developing malocclusionprompted Ms Seibert to investigate morepreventive forms of orthodontic treatment, whichfocused on the causes of malocclusion ratherthan the symptoms. In 2010 Ms Seibert obtainedher qualification as an orofacial myologist andcontinued to research methods for early treatmentof malocclusion before joining MRC in 2011.Originally coming from Brazil, Ms Seibert hasshared her knowledge and clinical experience withBrazilian and South American dental professionalsduring lectures in Brazil.

Course Topics

• Myobrace® procedures.

Dr Hanson developed a passion for all forms of early interceptive orthodontics while running a busy private practice on the Gold Coast (Qld, Australia). After working closely with MRC CEO Dr Chris Farrell and learning MRC ’s treatment systems under his guidance, Dr Hanson moved to exclusively using MRC treatment modalities. Additionally, Dr Hanson facilitates breathing training programs for dental and non-dental clients to help reduce symptoms of obstructive sleep apnoea, asthma and allergies. Dr Hanson is a fully qualified breathing educator (BIBH) and also studies nutrition at the Australasian College of Nutrition and Environmental Medicine (ACNEM). He has lectured to audiences from the dental profession as well as other health fields throughout Australia, New Zealand as well as the

UK and is an integral member of the MRC clinical and lecturing teams. Dr Hanson has had articles published in several dental publications.

In order to effectively present the large amount material practitioners will require to gain understanding of the myofunctional orthodontics and The Myobrace System™, MRC has produced a series of three courses. These courses can be customised to suit individual practitioners, as well as their staff, and include components focused on:

• Information regarding the basics ofmyofunctional orthodontics.

• More advanced case management andtrouble shooting.

• Treating TMJ disorder.

• Correcting posture and upper airwaycompromise for better health and naturaldevelopment.

Courses Course Agenda• MRC – 25 years developing and promoting

myofunctional orthodontics globally.

• Limitations of traditional orthodontics.

• Identifying the underlying causes ofmalocclusion – evaluation and diagnosis.

• Upper airway dysfunction and dysfunctionalbreathing – how it effects overall health.

• Myofunctional Orthodontics – treatingthe causes rather than the symptoms ofmalocclusion with The Myobrace System™.
