Anterior dental correction for
minor orthodontic relapse
Cosmetic alignment of

without brackets
Myofunctional habit correction
tongue thrust, reverse swallow
Bite settling after orthodontic
treatment can be used with
bonded retainers
The T4A by Myofunctional Research Co is
another appliance in the TRAINER System
designed to align the anterior dentition while
simultaneously re-training the oral musculature.
It is similar in function to the T4K (mixed

Retainer
The T4A can be used as a retainer immediately after
debanding to hold the anterior dental position while
allowing settling of the occlusion. This can be used
as the sole retention for highly compliant patients, or
supplemented with bonded 3-3 retainers.
Being more than just a retainer, the T4A simultaneously
treats myofunctional habits that cause relapse,
maintains Class II correction and does not break like
conventional retainers.
