Our dentists at Malis Dental recommend regular fluoride coating because newly grown teeth can easily decay.

In Japan, fluoride is applied at the health check-up for one-and-a-half-year-old and three-year-old children. However, it effectively prevents tooth decay to apply fluoride when teeth start to grow. At our dental clinic, we also record check-up results in the dental check-up/maternal and child health handbook.

Malis Dental offers different dental treatments for children:

• Regular check-ups and fluoride every 3 to 6 months
• Filling or Ag to prevent tooth decay on the milk tooth
  
• Fissure sealant on permanent teeth for kids
  
• Extraction and root canal treatment on the milk tooth

The Myobrace System is a preventive pre-orthodontic treatment that focuses on addressing the underlying causes of crooked teeth. Often without the need for braces or extraction of teeth, it unlocks natural growth and development. Treatment is best suited to children aged 3 to 15 and involves using a series of removable intra-oral appliances that are worn for 1-2 hours each day and overnight while sleeping.

Myobrace treatment:

• Corrects poor oral habits
  
• Develops & aligns the jaws
  
• Straightens the teeth
  
• Optimizes facial development
  
• Improves overall health
  
• Promotes healthy eating habits

It helps the child to breathe through their nose, correct tongue resting position, swallow correctly and keep their lips together. Waiting until all permanent teeth have come in to begin treatment with braces can unfortunately lead to irreversible damage affecting not only the teeth, but also the child’s overall health and development.

Poor myofunctional habits (poor oral habits) are evident before all permanent teeth are present, which means treatment of the causes can begin much earlier than originally thought. This can be as early as three years of age.
