Sometimes poor oral habits can cause irregularities in the face and mouth. These are called orofacial Myofunctional disorders (OMDs). Myofunctional therapy uses exercises to strengthen muscles, improve mouth function, and correct poor oral habits to help reverse OMDs. Myofunctional therapy also helps to reinforce the proper position of the tongue and is used to correct breathing problems during sleep, especially in children.
Poor oral habits usually start early in life and can affect certain behaviors down the road. If you think you may have been affected by mouth breathing, nail-biting, thumb sucking, clenching, grinding, improper chewing and swallowing, or other habits, then Myofunctional therapy could be the best treatment option for you.
