Tongue thrust in kids, also known as one of the orofacial myofunctional disorders, occurs when the tongue pushes forward against the teeth during swallowing, speaking, and/or at rest. This can lead to dental issues such as misalignment, feeding difficulties, and speech difficulties.

Through specialized techniques and exercises specifically selected, based on a child’s needs, our therapists use Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy to retrain their oral muscles, establish proper swallowing and tongue positioning habits.

Sleep issues in kids can lead to difficulty focusing, moodiness, cognitive function and overall poor physical health as the body repairs itself during sleep. Whether it's snoring, restlessness, bed wetting, sleep walking, sleep talking, grinding, mouth breathing, or sleep apnea, these issues can significantly impact your child's quality of rest and daily functioning.

Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy offers effective solutions to address underlying factors contributing to sleep issues in kids. By targeting oral muscle dysfunction and promoting proper breathing techniques, we help kids improve their sleep quality and overall well-being.

Picky eating in kids often manifests as a reluctance or refusal to try new foods, limited food variety, or strong preferences for certain textures and flavors. Feeding Therapy offers effective solutions to address picky eating behaviors in kids.
