ME Orthodontics Becomes Youth Sponsor of TSV Milbertshofen: Dr. Epple’s Munich Practices Support Young Soccer Players

The orthodontic practices at Münchner Freiheit and Sendlinger Tor support the youth division of one of the most talented soccer clubs in northern Munich.

Munich, August 2026 – ME Orthodontics, the orthodontic practices of Dr. med. dent. Matthias Epple Located at Münchner Freiheit and Sendlinger Tor, the practice will support the youth soccer program of TSV München-Milbertshofen starting with the 2026/27 season. The club is based in northern Munich—not far from the practice at Münchner Freiheit. The goal of this partnership is to promote participation in recreational sports among children and teenagers and to foster a connection between physical activity and health from an early age.

A club with an outstanding youth development program

Founded in 1905, TSV München-Milbertshofen is one of the best-known talent development programs in Munich’s amateur soccer scene. The youth division ranges from the youngest preschool-aged children to the A-juniors and comprises around 18 youth teams, including girls’ teams. The club is highly competitive: certain age groups play in the top divisions for their age categories, and year after year, several talented players move from the youth program to the youth academies of nearby professional and traditional clubs.

A prominent example illustrates just how successful the club’s youth development program is: Angelo Stiller, who now plays for the German national team, took his first steps in soccer at TSV Milbertshofen before turning professional. Examples like this reflect the club’s commitment to providing young people with opportunities for physical activity, team spirit, and a future in sports.

Why an Orthodontic Practice Is Involved in Youth Sports

For an orthodontic practice, youth sports are a natural fit: Children and adolescents are a key patient group, and physical activity, health, and prevention go hand in hand. Through this initiative, ME Orthodontics aims to support local recreational sports and help young athletes succeed. There is also a professional connection when it comes to dental and jaw protection: Especially in team sports, a custom-made sports mouthguard can protect teeth and jaws from injury—an issue that the practices are working to raise awareness of among sports clubs and parents.

“Getting young people excited about sports is one of the best investments in health there is. As orthodontic practices in northern Munich, we want to give something back to the young athletes of TSV Milbertshofen—and, at the same time, show how important it is to protect teeth and jaws while playing sports.” – Dr. Matthias Epple

The practice at Münchner Freiheit has been established in northern Munich for many years; TSV Milbertshofen is based just a few minutes away.
