MOUTH BREATHING

​Mouth breathing doesn’t look good, but more importantly it results in less oxygen being absorbed
​and reaching the brain and muscles.

PROPER BREATHING

Mouth is closed and is silent during rest
Breathing through the nose
Regular, calm without sighs and sniffs
Cannot see children breathe

vs.

POOR BREATHING

Mouth is open
Mouth is  breathing
Noisy with sighs and regular yawns
Noticeable movements of the tummy and chest

Nasal breathing benefits include:
  • Greater oxygen absorption
  • Regenerative sleep
  • Better brin development in kids
  • Adequate saliva, fresh breath
  • Optimal palatal development
  • Increase stamina and edurance
Mouth breathing contributes to:
  • Sleep disorders
  • Changes in posture
  • Jaw deformity
  • Gum disease
  • Tooth crowding
  • Long faces
  • Gummy smiles
  • Allergies
  • Lowered immune function

Athletes May Improve Performance Through Breathing Training 

If your child is often winded, tired, performing poorly in school or is looking for a competitive sports edge, MORE OXYGEN may be the answer to their problems. Our practice has special exercise for children and teens to learn:
​
  • Mouth closed with lips gently together
  • Correct swallowing
  • Correct tongue function
  • Breathing through the nose

​"Dr. Soroush Zaghi at the Breathe Institute in LA has pioneered the functional frenuloplasty approach to releasing posterior ties. He actually does the surgery with an Oral Myofunctional Therapist in the room with him, to help assess function and tension during the release, which is super cool. Movement + manual change at the same time = my fave!!I believe that this approach was the most appropriate for my particular needs, and I’ve been very happy with the results."
