Myofunctional Therapy IS a Treatment Modality for:

TONGUE TIE

A tongue tie is a condition where the frenulum under the tongue is abnormally short or tight. This can inhibit proper mobility and function of the tongue.

MOUTH BREATHING

Did you know breathing through your mouth can be harmful?  Our bodies are designed to breathe primarily through the nose and only use the mouth to breathe during exertion. Breathing through the mouth is unhealthy and can alter craniofacial growth. 

TONGUE THRUST

Tongue thrust refers to a swallowing pattern. People who have a retained tongue thrust swallow may experience changes in how their teeth fit together. A retained tongue thrust swallow is a symptom, not a diagnosis. In order to treat the swallow you must identify the root cause for the thrust. 

SLEEP APNEA/UARS

Often times sleep issues such as sleep apnea or upper airway resistance syndrome (UARS) can be affected by the tongue. Most patients with sleep apnea or UARS do not have correct tongue posture and this can lead to collapse of the airway. 

TMJ Dysfunction

TMJ dysfunction often leads to pain in the jaw and face. This dysfunction is often related to how a person swallows, breathes and how their tongue rests in their mouth. 

AIRWAY ISSUES

Growing a patent airway is very important to a long, healthy life. Correct breathing, tongue rest posture, and swallowing all contribute to how our airway develops and maintains over our lifetime.
