Enlarged tonsils can be another cause of improper swallowing, mouth breathing.
Therapy can help oral tongue function so food can taste, feel and be manipulated better.
Lip incompetence cannot only have negative cosmetic consequences and can also lead to excessive drooling.
Tongue-tie issues are the most under-diagnosed OMDs and can affect oral tongue placement and oral swallow.
A tongue-thrust is the most common Orofacial Myofunctional Disorder (OMD). It occurs when the tongue thrusts forward during oral swallowing.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea can affect long term health and lead to other serious health problems.
About
Chris Zombek has been helping people of various ages live a better life by providing therapy and correcting disorders related to the muscles of the face and mouth since 2014.
Working in the field of dentistry for three decades and noticing the deformity of the face, upper and lower jaws from sucking habits, prolonged bottle and sippy cup use, tongue ties and mouth breathing.
I realized that most patients would end up in orthodontics and possible surgery if not addressed early on.
Even with their treatment of orthodontics, I witnessed prolonged or relapsed situations which lead me to understand why early intervention orthodontics and myofunctional therapy had to collaborate for the best results.
