Dentofacial growth interferences, caused by abnormal lip and tongue function in the mixed dentition period are a common clinical condition. The main purpose of the treatment in such cases is to eliminate oral dysfunction, establish muscular balance and correct or diminish maxillary incisor protrusion. The position of the teeth is determined by the lip and tongue pressure. Lip function may have been the cause of forcing teeth in to malposition they occupy. The case report is presented where the myofunctional trainer T4K is used during growth phase.
在混合牙列期，由异常的唇舌功能引起的牙面生长干扰是一种常见的临床情况。此类病例治疗的主要目的是消除口腔功能障碍，建立肌肉平衡，并纠正或减少上颌切牙前突。牙齿的位置由唇舌压力决定。唇功能可能是导致牙齿被迫处于错位位置的原因。本文报告了在生长阶段使用肌功能训练器T4K的病例。
