Orthodontic stability concerns?

After orthodontic treatment, maintaining the new position of the teeth - known as retention- is just as important as the alignment process itself. Traditional retainers help hold teeth in place, but if the underlying muscle habits that contributed to the original misalignment are not addressed, relapse can occur.

How can myofunctional therapy help?

Myofunctional therapy plays a key role in the long term orthodontic stability by training the muscles of the mouth, tongue, and face to function properly. When the tongue rests in the correct position, lips stay sealed, and nasal breathing is established, the teeth are naturally supported and less likely to shift.
