FACIAL TREATMENT PROGRAMS

Eliminate Incorrect Habits and get Your Mouth and Facial Muscles Working as they Should

While my work in myofunctional therapy follows the “no two patients are the same” rule, I do provide several facial treatment programs that address the needs of a large percentage of the people I work with. But remember: your specific needs will likely require some adjustment of program elements in order to provide you with the exact therapy needed to break negative habits and develop effective new ones.

Myofunctional Therapy Programs

As we’ve discussed, myofunctional therapy covers a fairly wide range of exercises that address negative habits or developmental issues surrounding the face and mouth, as well as breathing. The exercises are customized to your specific needs and are designed to improve the strength and tone of targeted muscles.

Facial treatment programs can be aimed at:

Airway problems
Chronic Mouth Breathing
Tongue Thrust habit
Tongue postural issues (including before and after tongue-tie repair)
TMJ/jaw pain
Speech problems
Most other conditions that involve the muscles of the mouth and face

Facial treatment programs can last from a few weeks to a year. The length of treatment time depends on the severity of the condition, or the negative habits being addressed. Consistently doing the prescribed exercises will determine how successful the treatment is.
