Although we can’t stop you from purchasing appliances and using them, most of MRC‘s appliances are used as part of a treatment system and approach.
Without having a firm educational underpinning, you will likely use the appliances incorrectly and be disappointed by the results. Certain appliance systems can be used with little to no training, while others require a proper understanding of the treatment philosophy. Please use your discretion before purchasing an appliance in this regard.
Practitioners providing fixed orthodontic treatments can purchase the Myobrace for Braces (B series) appliances, which are ready to use out of the box and can be issued to patients to use over the top of braces. These appliances don’t require any further training and can be used today, however, we always recommend some training on the background philosophy of the appliances and how they work.
Yes, our Myotalea appliances can be used right out of the box for practitioners providing myofunctional therapy.

These are three different appliance systems or ranges under the one MRC umbrella. They are all prefabricated and used as part of a treatment approach with defined protocols, taught in our online courses. Certain appliances can even be used on their own, without being combined with the treatment approaches.
The Myobrace® System is designed to treat malocclusion by addressing the underlying breathing and myofunctional disorders, and is most effective in growing children.
The Myosa® System is designed to treat the breathing and myofunctional disorders that contribute to TMJ disorders and Sleep Related Breathing Disorders (SRBD). The design and approach to the appliances varies based on whether the patient is a child or adult.
The Myotalea® range is designed to provide active exercise to improve the strength and tone of the orofacial musculature, which is a critical component of rehabilitating myofunctional disorders. These appliances are suitable for patients of all ages and are usually combined with MRC‘s treatment systems or can be used by myofunctional therapists on their own.
The determination of which appliance range to use rests on the patients demands, your aims as a practitioner and what type of treatment you’re wanting to provide
