What is tongue thrust?
Tongue thrust is when the tongue moves forward against or between the teeth during swallowing, speaking, or even at rest.
How can myofunctional therapy help?
Through personalized exercises, myofunctional therapy teaches how to rest the tongue properly, breathe through the nose, swallow correctly, and build strength and coordination in the tongue and facial muscles. Addressing the root cause of the tongue thrust, creates lasting improvements in oral function, airway, and facial balance.
