When your craniofacial development doesn’t reach its full potential, it puts you at risk for a host of jaw joint, dental, sleep, premature aging, and airway problems.
Previously, it was thought the skull could not grow past adulthood, which limited your treatment options to orthodontics and surgery. But the Homeoblock appliance proves otherwise.
What's the Homeoblock appliance?
Homeoblock is a dental appliance, similar to a retainer, that works with your body to create physiological changes to your facial bones naturally - no surgery required!
Plus, this orthopedic/orthodontic dental appliance is removable, comfortable, and only worn at night.
By remodeling your facial bones based on your genetic potential, you’ll achieve an enhanced facial appearance, improved airway, and so much more!

When wearing the Homeoblock appliance, your tongue will apply intermittent cyclical force to your teeth and surrounding bone. This creates epigenetic signaling, allowing your body to express genes that haven’t been expressed before, and generate new bone growth and initiate structural changes.
The length of treatment will depend on the extent of your jaw development thus far and the genetic potential to grow. It could be a matter of months or years.
For an estimated timeline, schedule a consultation with Dr. Rioux.
Yes! The Homeoblock treatment helps increase midface volume, which is where you tend to lose fat, collagen, and bone as you age. It also helps diminish wrinkles and fine lines and creates more symmetrical facial features (eyes, lips, etc.).
Plus, unlike cosmetic treatments such as dermal fillers that treat aging symptoms, Homeoblock treats the source of the problem.
After Homeoblock, you'll look younger and prevent premature aging.
There are a multitude of ways the Homeoblock will improve your oral and overall health, including
- Improving sinus drainage
- Widening airflow passages
- Lessening sleep apnea symptoms
- Allowing more nitric oxide to reach the back of your nose
And more!
