Nuvola Junior Aligners

Dr. David and her team at the TMJ and Sleep Therapy Centre of New England are committed to maintaining the highest standard of care for their current and future patients. As part of this commitment, they continuously evaluate innovative products that align with their vision. This dedication led the 70+ TMJ and Sleep Therapy Centres worldwide to adopt the Nuvola® aligner early on, recognizing the significant myofunctional benefits it offers to patients.

The Nuvola® Junior™ orthodontic protocol is specifically designed to address malocclusions in young patients, even at very early ages. This innovative approach combines aligners with functional devices to correct orofacial dysfunction, particularly in muscle and tongue positioning. It targets common functional challenges such as issues with chewing, breathing, and swallowing while simultaneously addressing dental malocclusions.

This progressive treatment supports natural growth and development in children without requiring extensive maintenance or significantly disrupting their daily routines. The appliance is worn for less than 30 minutes a day, ensuring minimal impact on their daily activities. Most importantly, the protocol delivers predictable and controlled corrective movements, promoting functional improvements such as enhanced blood flow to the periodontal ligament (PDL) and aiding palatal expansion by encouraging proper tongue elevation within the mouth.
