Braces And Myofunctional Therapy - How To Get The Best Orthodontic Results

Welcome to Faceology - your online myofunctional therapy resource.

In this video, Sarah Hornsby and Melissa Mugno will show you the easiest and most effective ways to get the best results from your orthodontic treatment by combining braces and myofunctional therapy.

It’s really important that orthodontic treatment is approached with the goals of myofunctional therapy in mind. Orthodontic treatment often relapses, and the results of braces can be unstable and potentially short-term. Many people end up needing two or more rounds of braces due to orthodontic relapse.

This is because the underlying conditions that caused the teeth to move in the first place weren’t addressed. Basically, the lips and tongue can exert a lot of force on the teeth, and if your tongue isn’t in the correct place in your mouth, and your swallowing isn’t optimal, then your teeth can move even after your orthodontic treatment is completed.

Orofacial myofunctional therapy (or “myo”) is just like physical therapy. It uses simple exercises for the muscles of the mouth, face, and head/neck to restore proper breathing and oral function. And addressing these issues means that the chance of getting great results from your braces or any orthodontic treatment is much higher.

At Faceology, we offer modern myofunctional therapy that’s 100% online, so it’s convenient but also incredibly effective.
