The world of oral wellness extends beyond just healthy teeth at Miami Designer Smiles. From physiologic dentures to Invisalign, and from veneers to teeth whitening, we offer a wide array of solutions. One of these standout procedures is Myofunctional Therapy—a natural, non-invasive approach to improving facial symmetry and function—brought to you by our proficient dental team, Dr. Concepcion Sanchez-Garcia, and Dr. Raul Garcia.
Understanding Myofunctional Therapy
At Miami Designer Smiles, we pay heed to the functionality of the orofacial muscles as much as we do to aesthetics. Orofacial Myofunctional Disorders (OMDs) are universal, affecting up to 81 percent of children and disrupting essential functions like breathing, eating, and speaking. Accordingly, we offer Myofunctional Therapy—a system designed to counteract these disorders and aid in bringing about a pleasing facial balance.
What Causes OMDs?
OMDs arise from various common, often-overlooked habits like thumb sucking, lips resting apart, and maintaining a forward resting posture. It may seem insignificant, but these practices can seriously impact facial growth, jaw alignment, oral hygiene, and the success of orthodontic treatment if left untreated.
The Role of Myofunctional Therapy at Miami Designer Smiles
Empowering your oral health journey, we at Miami Designer Smiles harness the potential of Myofunctional Therapy to manage OMDs and enhance the wellbeing of your orofacial muscles—bringing you steps closer to your desired facial aesthetics.
Improving Facial Symmetry
By retraining your facial muscles, Myofunctional Therapy helps enhance facial symmetry, an essential factor in achieving attractive facial aesthetics.
Enhancing Speech and Breathing
Besides its aesthetic benefits, Myofunctional Therapy also improves speech and breathing. By aligning the muscles of the mouth and tongue, this therapy rectifies any speech-related disorders stemming from OMDs. Moreover, it manages disorders caused by malfunctioning muscles around the breathing channel—ensuring you breathe easily and fully.
Complementing Orthodontics
Myofunctional Therapy also complements traditional orthodontics and dental treatments. By managing OMDs, it ensures the long-term success of your orthodontic treatments, making your journey towards that perfect smile more comfortable and more effective.
