Orofacial myofunctional disorders (OMDs) are abnormal movement patterns of the face and mouth. 

​

OMDs may affect, directly and/or indirectly, breastfeeding, facial skeletal growth and development, chewing, swallowing, speech, occlusion, temporomandibular joint movement, oral hygiene, stability of orthodontic treatment, facial esthetics, and more (AOMT, 2017)

​

Our team at Rosario Therapy Center provides orofacial myofunctional therapy to help treat and manage OMDs.  Our team has received specialized training in Orofacial Myology which is described as the study and treatment of the oral and facial muscles as they relate to speech, dentition, chewing/bolus collection, swallowing, and overall mental and physical health.
