Myofunctional Therapy UK (MFT UK) leads the way in Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy (OMT) and functional dental care across the UK. Founded by internationally respected innovator Yulli Tamayo-Myerson, we bring over 30 years of expertise to advancing oral, airway, and craniofacial health.
Through pioneering tools like the YTM Tool® and Glossopostural Integration®, we deliver evidence-based therapies that improve breathing, posture, speech, sleep, and development. Our work is rooted in innovation, compassion and education — empowering individuals and clinicians alike.
Beyond clinical care, we are committed to community transformation through initiatives like the MyoBreathe® Clubs —early intervention groups focused on promoting optimal breathing, good oral habits and functional development in children. We proudly extend our reach globally through not-for-profit partnerships with Dental Mavericks, Dental Project Peru and the International Institute of Orthopostural Education (IIOPE) via its Health for Future Generations (HFG) initiative.
From early childhood to adulthood, MFT UK is dedicated to delivering real, lasting change in health and quality of life.
