Myofunctional orthodontics

Myofunctional orthodontics is a preventive and interceptive approach that aims to correct poor oral habits and guide jaw development. Using removable appliances and exercises, it addresses tongue position, breathing, and swallowing to promote harmonious growth. This type of treatment is often recommended for young children to intervene early and reduce the need for more complex orthodontic treatments in adolescence, but it can also be beneficial in adulthood. It improves function, dental alignment, and facial balance.
