We want our children HEALTHY, EDUCATED and GOOD LOOKING. There is no question when it comes to health and education of our children, you do whatever you can to give them the best start in life. Decisions on Health and Education start at 3-5 years of age and continue throughout their childhood. Why do we leave a child's facial development to chance? It is one of the three most important factors in a child's lifetime success. The Pre-Orthodontic Trainer® is designed to improve facial and dental development in the growing child by correcting habits like mouth breathing and tongue thrusting that research shows cause poor facial growth and crowded teeth. Facial Development of the growing will be severely compromised unless the Myofunctional problems are corrected. Why wait, YOU CAN do something NOW! Orthodontic treatment cannot be stable unless MyoFunctional causes are corrected. ![]() "Hi, I'm Alex and I'm 11 years old. I breathe through my nose and my tongue position is correct. And when I swallow you can't see my lips move. Guess what? I have perfectly straight teeth and properly developed jaws. See how wide my jaw is. That's normal. Do your kids look like this? Unfortunately most kids my age have underdeveloped jaws and crowded teeth because they breathe through their mouth and they swallow with their lower lip pushing back. I don't need orthodontics. But I had a little help. I used the TRAINER years ago when my second front teeth came in. Have a look at the TRAINER SYSTEM. If you want your kids to look good and have straight teeth for life, you have to get into it........ I hope I have been of some help to all the boys and girls around the world by telling my story".
