MyoKids Dental in Weybridge provides combined orthopaedic and orthodontic treatment to correct jaw discrepancies, improve bite development, and straighten children’s teeth.
At MyoKids Dental in Surrey, Dr Marshall and Dr Kalia can guide jaw growth and skeletal orthopaedic development while your child is still growing, and, once the jaw structure is balanced, follow up with orthodontic treatment to move teeth into straighter positions.
MyoKids Dental is a fun, colourful dental practice in Weybridge with a dedicated children’s dentistry floor, specialist paediatric dentists, and an award-winning team with decades of experience in dento-facial orthopaedics & orthodontics.
Parents choose MyoKids because we look beyond crooked teeth. We assess jaw growth, facial balance, bite development, airway habits, oral muscles, and long-term orthodontic needs before recommending the right treatment pathway.
Combined treatment is usually completed in two phases.
Typical timeline: 6-18 months
Phase 1 treatment begins by guiding jaw bone growth and skeletal development while your child is still growing. Treatments can include Myobrace, functional appliances, or expansion appliances to improve jaw position, arch width, and bite balance before considering orthodontic treatment. Common goals of phase 1 include creating space for adult teeth, supporting better facial balance, reducing the need for extractions later, and improving overbites, underbites, or crossbites.
Typical timeline: 6-24 months
Phase 2 focuses on moving, aligning, and fine-tuning the teeth's final positions after the skeletal relationships have improved. Common orthodontic treatments include fixed braces, ceramic braces, or clear aligners like Invisalign to move teeth into their correct position, with common goals of refining smile aesthetics, straightening crowded teeth, aligning rotated teeth, closing gaps, and improving the final bite.
Depending on complexity, your child’s treatment plan may combine appliances and treatments based on their age, growth stage, bite, and alignment needs.
Here’s what we offer at MyoKids Dental and how they can be used in your child’s orthopaedic and orthodontic treatment plan:
The cost depends on your child’s assessment, appliance needs, treatment phases, and whether they’ll need braces or aligners later.
| Treatment | Cost |
|---|---|
| Orthodontic consultation | £80 |
| Functional appliances | From £600 |
| Fixed braces | From £1,200 |
| Invisalign | From £1,000 |
| Full Myobrace course including exercises | £2,800 |
Flexible finance is available, including 0% finance over 12 months and longer interest-bearing finance options.
Your child may benefit from an assessment if their orthodontic problem involves both jaw development and tooth position.
Common signs include:
If you’ve been advised to wait for braces, it might be worth getting a second opinion from our paediatric dentists. Braces move teeth, but they don’t guide jaw bone growth the way orthopaedic treatment can. If your child has a skeletal bite problem, waiting until their adult teeth have emerged might make it harder to correct later.
Early orthopaedic treatment can improve the foundation, so later braces or aligners may be simpler, shorter, or more predictable where suitable.

Reviews
It is a two-phase approach that guides jaw growth first, then straightens the teeth afterwards, where needed.
No. Orthopaedic treatment focuses on jaw growth, skeletal development, and correcting the bite. Braces focus on moving teeth into straighter positions.
Combined treatment is usually considered while children are still growing, often from around age 6 onwards, depending on development, bite and orthodontic needs.
Some children still need fixed braces or clear aligners after orthopaedic treatment for final tooth alignment.
In some cases, guiding jaw growth and creating space earlier may reduce the need for extractions later, but this depends on your child’s assessment.
