What does an Orofacial Myofunctional Disorder look like???

October 2018

Filed under: Uncategorized — drfranklin @ 1:11 pm

This is what an Orofacial Myofunctional Disorder looks like … a chronic open mouth posture known as lip incompetency resulting in the tongue resting low and forward against and between the teeth which can negatively change the growth of the teeth, facial shape and speech. The goal of Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy is to teach a correct oral rest posture of the tongue and lips consisting of closed lips, nasal breathing, tongue in roof of mouth rest posture.
