Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy is a personalized therapy program that focuses on improving the function and coordination of the muscles of the face, tongue, lips, and mouth. It is designed to address dysfunctional oral habits and muscle patterns that can impact breathing, swallowing, sleep, speech, facial development, and overall oral health.
Myofunctional therapy uses targeted exercises and habit-retraining techniques to help patients establish healthier patterns, such as proper tongue posture, nasal breathing, and correct swallowing function.
Common concerns that may benefit from myofunctional therapy include:
- Mouth breathing
- Tongue thrust
- Tongue tie
- Low tongue posture
- Improper swallowing patterns
- Sleep-disordered breathing
- Orthodontic relapse
- Clenching and grinding habits
At Myo Method, therapy programs are personalized to each patient’s individual needs and designed to support long-term functional improvement and overall wellness.
