Goals

Sucking your thumb, nail biting, or biting on pens can all impact the way your face  and your airway develop.

Breathing through your nose increases the level of oxygen into your tissues, organs and brain.  It produces nitric oxide which acts as a first defense against viruses, bacteria and fungus.

Lips should rest naturally and effortlessly together.

Your tongue should rest on your palate. This action helps promotes better sleep and steers the growth of facial features and teeth.

Tongue thrust occurs when a persons is swallowing incorrectly. This can cause an open bite where your front teeth do not meet or you may have loose teeth.
