Myofunctional Impairment Screening
I feel like there are six big areas that should be considered when doing a myofunctional impairment screening. Whether you are a provider, looking for the most important things to evaluate or whether you’re a human being wondering about yourself. This week, I am delving into those areas that should be looked at.
The 6 things that I discuss as part of a myofunctional impairment screening are:
- Airway awareness
- Tongue-tie
- Sleep
- Mouth breathing
- Tongue and mouth posture
- Digestion
In this Facebook Live, I break these areas down for you!
Enjoy!
