Orthodontic Stability and Myofunctional Therapy
Protecting Your Investment
Why Teeth Shift After Braces
Before, During or After
How Therapy Keeps Results Stable
Myofunctional therapy can be added at any point in orthodontic care. Before treatment, it can make tooth movement more efficient. During treatment, it builds new habits while the teeth are guided, and afterward it gives your results a much better chance of staying put.
Spreading Front Teeth
Front teeth that gradually gap or flare after treatment often point to tongue pressure.
Returning Open Bite
An open bite that comes back is a common sign of an untreated tongue thrust.
Tight Retainer
A retainer that feels tight after one night off means teeth are being pushed around.
Visible Tongue
The tongue showing between the teeth during swallowing or speech works against your results.
Open Lips at Rest
Lips that don't close comfortably leave the teeth without balanced pressure from outside.
Mouth Breathing
Breathing through the mouth keeps the tongue low and can undo palate expansion over time.
Working With Orthodontists
The Balance Your Retainer Can't Fix
Teeth sit in balance between the tongue inside and the lips and cheeks outside, and light constant pressure is exactly how teeth move. Brandee spent eighteen years in dental hygiene watching patients invest in straight smiles only to lose ground later. She now works with orthodontists to correct the patterns that cause relapse, so the investment holds.
