At Babylon Dental Care, we believe that a healthy smile starts with healthy function. Myofunctional Therapy is a gentle, non-invasive treatment that focuses on improving how the muscles of the mouth, tongue, and face work together.
These muscles play an essential role in breathing, swallowing, speech, jaw development, and sleep. When they do not function properly, it can affect oral health, facial growth, and overall wellness. Our Myofunctional Therapy services are designed to help patients of all ages develop healthy muscle patterns that support long-term health.
Myofunctional Therapy is a specialized program of exercises and techniques that retrain the muscles of the face, tongue, and mouth.
The goal is to establish proper oral posture, nasal breathing, and correct swallowing patterns.
Healthy muscle function helps guide proper dental alignment, supports jaw development, and promotes a stable airway.
When muscle imbalances are present, they can contribute to
