CURAPROX Baby, Orthodontic Soother 1–2.5 Years, Size 1, Coral

The CURAPROX Baby orthodontic soother is designed for children from 1 to 2.5 years old. Its special shape helps to correct improper development in a child's mouth, which can be caused by habits such as thumb-sucking. The flat tip and side wings support the formation of the dental arch and prevent tooth displacement. The soother is made of silicone and works on an active principle, where the child must engage their tongue and cheek muscles to keep the soother from falling out.

An Active Soother for Proper Development

Unlike conventional convex soothers that stay in the mouth on their own, the CURAPROX Baby is active. To prevent it from falling out, the child must engage their tongue and cheek muscles, which activates its corrective properties. The pressure of the tongue on the soother towards the palate causes the side wings to push the palate outwards. Through this mechanism, the soother actively helps to form a correct, wide dental arch. At the same time, the flat tip does not push the palate upwards, which prevents its undesirable arching.

Correction and Prevention of Deviations

Using an unsuitable soother or thumb-sucking can lead to anatomical deviations such as crooked teeth, incorrect tongue position, or mouth breathing. The CURAPROX Baby soother can partially correct these deviations while also preventing them from worsening. By supporting the formation of an optimal dental arch, it reduces the risk of needing braces in the future for an overbite or crossbite. The soother also helps prevent the narrowing of the upper airways, which leads to unhealthy mouth breathing, and supports the development of natural swallowing.
