Myofunctional Therapy: Part 3
“As the Vivos appliance reshapes the airway and increases the space in the oral cavity and the upper airway, the myofunctional therapist teaches the individual how to use that new space.”
When should patients start Myofunctional Therapy?
- Early intervention is always best—especially with oral habits.
- After and before a lingual frenectomy
- Before, during, and/or after maxillary, mandibular, or palate expansion
- Before and/or after orthodontic treatment
The Benefits of Myofunctional Therapy for Your Practice:
- Increased case acceptance
- Increased revenue potential
- Improved patient compliance
- Improved case management
- Accelerated patient development
- Accelerated case completion
- Long-term success
In several Myofunctional studies, treatment results included:
- 50% AHI decrease in adults
- 65% AHI decrease in children
- Improvements in daytime sleepiness and snoring
