Almost all modern food - is refined and processed foods.The load on the jaw when eating these foods is minimal.The result of this progress was the significant growth in dentition anomalies.
To address the efforts of scientists around the world in the field of orthodontics aimed at creating new functional devices.Mechanical devices for alignment of dentition (brackets and plates) can only change the shape and the position and function - affect the development of the jaw, chewing muscles, direct position of the tongue.
Causes of dentofacial problems
Also highly processed foods causes warped and underdeveloped jaws are:
- crowding dentition;
- mouth breathing;
- incorrect position of the tongue;

As a result of a number of leading specialists were trainers for teeth.They combine the properties of both the mechanical and functional adaptations.This is a completely new approach to orthodontic treatment.
