Understanding Orofacial Myofunctional Dysfunctions

Orofacial myofunctional dysfunctions can affect anyone, at any age, and they are more common than you might think. Individuals grappling with these conditions face a range of symptoms, from childhood to old age.  

It starts in childhood…

Children with orofacial myofunctional issues often exhibit characteristic appearances such as an open mouth posture with dry, chapped lips, tongue thrust during swallowing and speaking (commonly known as “interdental lisp”), and difficulty controlling saliva. Unfortunately, this constant mouth opening can lead to increased susceptibility to infections, dental problems, and even misalignments due to improper tongue function.
