Protect Every Finished Case From Tongue-Thrust Relapse

Myo ACE trains your assistants to catch and manage the muscle patterns that undo orthodontic work — built into the recall visits you're already running, with zero added referrals.

14 CE Hours (AGD/PACE) • Hybrid Format • West Palm Beach, FL

Watch This Before You Decide — see exactly how Myo ACE helps your practice reduce relapse and keep cases in-house.

Every orthodontic practice deals with this:

  • 😔

    Patients relapse after treatment, even with perfect retainer compliance.

    Retainers manage tooth position. They don't fix the muscle pattern that moved the teeth in the first place. If tongue thrust or low tongue posture was never addressed, wearing the retainer exactly as instructed still isn't enough.

  • 😔

    And referring out doesn’t reliably fix it either.

    When myofunctional therapy happens outside your practice, with no one checking in between visits, exercise follow-through is reported as low as 10% in clinical literature.¹ Myo ACE builds that follow-through into visits your patients are already keeping.

  • 😔

    Lost visibility, lost patients.

    Referring out to an external therapist — or losing the patient entirely to an "airway dentist" — means you stop knowing what's happening with your own case.

  • 😔

    Most of all

    Assistants who want to grow, and nowhere for that energy to go.

    Capable staff who want more clinical responsibility often disengage — or leave — when there's no path to use it.

  • The cost of doing nothing?

    Redone cases, frustrated patients, staff turnover and revenue walking out the door thanks to someone else’s referral.

Myo ACE was designed with orthodontists in mind, training your team to close the gaps.

A hybrid CE course that turns your orthodontic assistants into Certified Myofunctional ACE Coaches (CMAC) — equipped to screen, coach, and support myofunctional therapy cases alongside your orthodontic treatment plan.

Why Myo ACE?

Myo ACE is retention insurance for the cases you've already finished — built to run inside your existing schedule, with your own team.

✔ Protect Finished Cases – Catch tongue thrust and habit patterns before they undo months of alignment work, without adding a referral or a delay.
✔ Keep Cases In-House– No need to refer out and lose visibility, revenue, or the patient entirely.
✔ Built Into Visits You’re Already Running – Screening and coaching fit into existing recall appointments, adding 5–7 minutes, not a new appointment type.
✔ Your Assistant, Under Your Supervision – Assistants screen, document, and coach; you retain diagnosis and treatment-planning authority, the same as any other delegated clinical task in your practice. Along the way, your assistant earns the Certified Myofunctional ACE Coach (CMAC) credential.*

*Certified Myo ACE coaches will not replace myofunctional therapists for advanced and specialized cases, they will be able to limit referral necessity for most cases with mild to moderate orofacial muscular dysfunction.
