​

  • feeding struggles that affect an infant's weight gain and lead many mothers to stop breastfeeding  [1]. 

  • feeding issues in toddlers 

  • speech problems in children

  • headaches or neck pain in adults.

There has been extensive research on the causes of crooked teeth, the benefits of early interceptive treatment, the positive effects of correcting muscle function, and the effectiveness of Myofunctional  Therapy treatment. Research has proven that crowded teeth, incorrect jaw development and other orthodontic problems are not caused by big teeth in small jaws or other hereditary factors. Mouth breathing, tongue thrusting, reverse swallowing and thumb sucking (known as incorrect myofunctional habits) are the real causes.
