Myofunctional therapy is a therapeutic approach designed to correct oral and facial muscle function and improve overall oral health. It focuses on retraining the muscles involved in oral activities, such as breathing, swallowing, and chewing, to promote proper function and alignment. This therapy is particularly effective in addressing issues like:
Encourages nasal breathing instead, which can help improve overall health and prevent orthodontic problems.
Promotes proper tongue placement against the roof of the mouth to support correct dental and facial development.
Corrects dysfunctional swallowing habits that can affect dental alignment and overall oral health.
Helps balance and strengthen oral and facial muscles to support proper growth and function.
By addressing underlying muscle function problems, it can reduce the need for braces or other orthodontic treatments.
Improves habits and functions such as swallowing and breathing.
Encourages the natural development of the teeth and jaws, contributing to better overall oral health.
Myofunctional appliances are devices designed to work in conjunction with myofunctional therapy. They help guide the development of the teeth and jaws while addressing poor oral habits. These appliances are used to:
• Myobrace: A popular brand of myofunctional appliance designed to correct oral habits and guide dental development. It works by applying gentle, consistent pressure to the teeth and jaws.
• Functional Appliances: Various types of devices that help to correct jaw alignment and promote proper growth.
Combines myofunctional therapy principles with orthodontic treatment to address both functional and alignment issues.
Designed to be comfortable and easy to use, making them suitable for both children and adults.
Helps enhance the effectiveness of myofunctional therapy by providing physical support for muscle retraining and alignment.
Together, myofunctional therapy and appliances offer a comprehensive approach to improving oral health, addressing underlying issues, and promoting proper dental and facial development.
