Myofunctional Breathing Therapy

At Sequoia Station Dental Care, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive oral health solutions that go beyond traditional dentistry. We are proud to offer Myofunctional Therapy, a specialized treatment designed to improve oral function, breathing, and overall wellness. Led by Dr. Veronica Montoya, our myofunctional therapy program helps patients of all ages address issues related to tongue posture, swallowing, and airway function.

What is Myofunctional Therapy?

Myofunctional therapy is a non-invasive, exercise-based treatment that focuses on retraining the muscles of the mouth, face, and throat. By improving tongue posture, breathing patterns, and oral habits, this therapy can have a profound impact on speech, sleep, and overall dental health.

This treatment is especially beneficial for:

• Mouth breathing and airway issues

• Tongue thrusting and improper swallowing patterns

• Sleep-disordered breathing (such as snoring and mild sleep apnea)

• TMJ pain and tension

• Speech and articulation concerns
