Myofunctional therapy with orthodontics in Colorado Springs
Teeth move in response to the muscles around them. A low tongue posture, tongue thrust or mouth breathing can work against orthodontic treatment. Myofunctional therapy addresses those habits before, during or after braces and aligners.
Signs to look for

What to expect
Every program starts with a free 15-minute consultation and an initial evaluation. Most programs are about 12 sessions over 12 weeks, with daily exercises to practice at home. Sessions are in person in northern Colorado Springs, or virtual.
