The OrthoPreventAligner
®
PR-M
The OrthoPreventAligner
®
PR-M is made of highly
elastic silicone. It has an ideal semi­circular shape for
deciduous teeth, into which the teeth can be aligned
by the restoring force of the silicone. In order to
achieve healthier nasal breathing in the case of exist­
ing
mouth breathing , the device deliberately closes
the mouth without air slits.
More than half of all preschool children have an open
mouth posture which, if left untreated, leads to a jaw
anomaly.
Lip training with the
OrthoPreventAligner
®
PR-M also
eliminates this malfunction.
By shielding disturbing soft tissues in the mouth
(tongue and cheek mucosa) and activating the mus­
cles of the mouth and lips, teeth are able to move into
the correct position by themselves.
