Myofunctional Therapy (MFT)
Most people never think about where their tongue rests, how they swallow, or whether they breathe through their nose or mouth. But these everyday habits can have a surprising impact on your teeth, jaw growth, sleep, and overall health.
Myofunctional therapy helps retrain the muscles of the tongue, lips, and face through simple exercises that promote proper breathing, swallowing, and oral posture. By correcting these habits, patients can support healthier dental development, improve orthodontic outcomes, and build a stronger foundation for long-term oral health.
Your journey to a healthier smile may start with something as simple as learning where your tongue belongs.
This treatment uses simple exercises to train the tongue, lips, and facial muscles to function properly.
Many dental issues come from incorrect tongue posture, mouth breathing, or improper swallowing. Myofunctional therapy helps correct these habits naturally.
