Myofunctional Therapy One-Time Session

The one-time Myofunctional therapy sessions will include some neuromuscular re-education exercises that support the optimal structure and function of the orofacial complex to address orofacial myofunctional disorders (OMDs). OMDs include but are not limited to, abnormal orofacial rest posture of the tongue, lips and/or mandible; open mouth posture; atypical swallowing/forward tongue movement; inefficient/insufficient chewing; inefficient breastfeeding; noxious oral habits; orofacial and jaw parafunctions; and concomitant systemic symptoms such as sleep interruptions (snoring, sleep apnea.) In this session your therapist will review your comprehensive evaluation and present a custom plan that includes some exercises, healthy habits, product recommendations and referrals as necessary. The best treatment option is still a full myofunctional therapy program, but this option can be used for someone who is unable to commit to a full program for whatever reason.
