Do you struggle with any of the following?

If you’re wondering whether you might be dealing with an orofacial myofunctional disorder (OMD), there are several signs and symptoms to look out for. OMD refers to issues with the muscles and functions in and around the mouth, including the tongue, lips, and jaw. These problems can affect basic functions like breathing, swallowing, chewing, speaking, and even sleeping.

Sleep Issues

Orofacial Myofunctional Disorder

Open Mouth Breathing

Noxious Oral Habits

TMJ Disorders

Tongue Thrust

We help patients of all ages

An OMD can be diagnosed in children as young as four years old, and myofunctional therapy can help these children develop proper oral habits as they grow. My OMT of Idaho can work with children to fix problems that might develop from habits like thumb sucking, teeth grinding or extended use of pacifiers or sippy cups.

If you’re an adult suffering from an OMD, you can still see results. No one is too old to begin myofunctional therapy. Our therapist can work with you to change a lifetime of unhealthy habits.

Call us today to get started on a long-term solution to your orofacial myofunctional disorder (OMD).
