The Soft Pre-Orthodontic Trainer™ (T4K SOFT TRAINER) is made from medical grade material, which has been used throughout the MRC Trainer System™ for its well recognised biocompatibility and excellent patient compliance.

Early Treatment of a Class II, Division 2 Malocclusion with the TRAINER for Kids (T4K™): A Case Report

Published by: The Journal of Clinical Pediatric Dentistry

This paper reports a Class II, division 2 malocclusion case successfully treated at an early age and in a relatively short period of time using the Trainer for Kids (T4K™), 
a prefabricated functional appliance. Skeletal changes observed in the before and after treatment cephalic radiographs were compared with the expected changes produced by the patient’s natural growth. The functional appliance’s effects resulting in the outcomes observed in this clinical case, as well as the importance of identifying the etiological factors when treating a malocclusion will be discussed.

T4K™ - Procedures Manual

Published by: MRC

The concept of early treatment of orthodontic problems in the growing child has been in practice for the majority of the century, particularly in Europe. The “functional appliance”is used for redirection of growth and, combined with arch expansion, has been a popular choice for many common malocclusions. More widespread adoption of these techniques, particularly in North America has been limited by the inherent disadvantages and criticism of these “functional”
appliances.
