Description
Trainers – Primary Dentition for Children 12 – 15 Years
Aligns teeth in the permanent dentition
The T4A is a single-size appliance that aligns the anterior dentition while simultaneously re-training the oral musculature. It is similar in function to the T4K? (for use in the mixed dentition) and T4B (for use with fixed appliances), and is ideal for retention and minor relapse cases.
Important Points
The steps for correct dental and facial development are:
Lips together.
Breathe through the nose.
No lip activity when swallowing.
Poor myofunctional habits such as incorrect swallowing and breathing through the mouth are the major cause of misaligned teeth and poor jaw development.Research has shown that the correction of these poor myofunctional habits improves facial and dental development.
Due to the nature of removable appliances, patient compliance is essential. Therefore it is important to only select motivated patients and parents. If motivation is a problem, it may be better to suggest the use of conventional brackets.
Arch Expansion
Inmore severe cases when the jaws are underdeveloped, appliances such as the Farrell Bent Wire System (BWS and/or Biobloc may be required for extra widening of the dental archform. An advantage of using the BWS is that it can be using in conjunction with the T4A MRC have also developed a procedure for composite build ups know as Myolay

Direction to Use
How the T4A Phase 1 works
The T4A is like the T4K? but designed for the permanent dentition. It has higher sides in the canine region to align erupting canines and the distal ends are longer to accommodate the second molars. The combination of labial bows and tooth channels with the 2 phase hardness, polyurethane material, give good alignment of anterior teeth. The Myofunctional Effect also retrains oral musculature making it ideal in retention and minor relapse cases. The T4A is made of polyurethane and is available in two versions – Phase 1 (softer version) and Phase 2 (harder version).
T4A Phase 1 (Starting)
The Phase 1 T4A (blue or clear) is a softer material with the flexibility to adapt to misaligned anterior teeth. When used, light forces are applied to the anterior teeth to assist their alignment into the correct arch form. The T4A Phase 1 can also be used simultaneously with specific arch development appliances. Extra spacing in the palatal area means it can be used with the BENT WIRE System (BWS and also MRC’s Myolay arch-development system.
Combined with the myofunctional habit correction of the T4A these light intermittent forces produce dental alignment improvements within 3-6 months.
T4A Phase 2 (Finishing)
Phase 2 T4A (red) is the same design but made in a harder material putting more force on the anterior teeth. It is to be used after the phase 1 T4A once more aligning force is required. This further improves the tooth and Class II correction (minor) while continuing the myofunctional habit correction. It can be phased into use starting with 1-4 hours during the day while continuing with the softer starting T4A at night. Treatment period varies and can be a further 3-6 months plus retention.
Patient Selection
The T4A is best suited to patients 12 – 15 years of age in the early stages of the permanent dentition. The T4A can be used as a myofunctional retainer for patients who do not wish to have permanent bonded retainers fitted. It is also useful for treating minor relapse cases without re-fitting fixed orthodontics, and for minor cosmetic alignment of the anterior teeth.
Direction for use
The T4A must be worn for 1 hour each day and overnight while sleeping and always remember to follow these few simple steps:
Lips together – at all times except when speaking.
Breathe through the nose – to assist the development of the upper and lower jaws, and to achieve the correct bite.
No lip activity when swallowing – which allows the front teeth to develop correctly.
Cleaning the T4A?
The T4A? should be clean under warm running water every time the patient removes it from their mouth.
Use Myoclean tablets to correctly clean twice a week. Myoclean is the recommended cleaning agent for MRC’s appliances.
Recommended minimum use – ONE HOUR DAILY plus OVERNIGHT WHILE SLEEPINGCases treated using the T4A Phase 1
