CURAPROX Baby, Orthodontic Soother from 2.5 Years, Size 2, Blue

The CURAPROX Baby orthodontic soother is designed for children from 30 months of age. It helps correct improper development in a child's mouth, which can be caused, for example, by frequent thumb-sucking or the use of an unsuitable soother. Thanks to its special shape, it prevents crooked teeth, incorrect swallowing, and mouth breathing. The teat is made of silicone and is free from the harmful substance BPA, which ensures safe use.

Corrective Shape for Healthy Development

The CURAPROX Baby soother actively contributes to the correct development of the jaw and teeth with its shape. Its flat tip does not push the palate upwards and prevents the formation of a high-arched shape. This helps to prevent tooth misalignments, such as an overbite or crossbite, and thus reduces the need for future treatment with braces. The side wings gently press on the side walls of the jaw and support the formation of an optimal dental arch.

An Active Soother for Correct Habits

Unlike common convex soothers that stay in the mouth on their own, this model requires the child's active cooperation. For the soother not to fall out, the child must actively engage their tongue and cheeks. This is precisely what activates the soother's corrective abilities. The pressure of the tongue on the flexible silicone membrane, which resembles a mother's breast, causes the side wings to push the palate outwards. This encourages natural swallowing and strengthens the oral muscles.

Supports Proper Nasal Breathing

The soother's special shape also helps to prevent mouth breathing and promotes healthier nasal breathing. Mouth breathing provides less oxygen to the brain and can lead to sleep disorders, irritability, or impaired learning ability. Children who breathe through their mouths are also more prone to respiratory illnesses because the filtering capacity of the nose is not utilised. Mouth breathing also leads to the drying out of teeth and increases the risk of tooth decay.
