Most people have never thought about what their mouth is doing at rest, but it matters!

Proper mouth resting posture means:
✔️ Lips together, soft and relaxed
✔️ No chin wrinkle or strain
✔️ A small space between upper and lower teeth
✔️ Tongue resting on the palate

When that posture is off, it can affect facial development, breathing patterns, sleep quality, and yes, speech.

Did you know the R sound is one of the most complex sounds in the English language?

There's a reason it's often the last sound to develop, and why so many children (and adults) struggle with it.

The R sound requires incredibly precise tongue placement, and even the smallest variation can throw it off. That's what makes it so difficult to learn on your own, and why targeted, specialized therapy makes such a difference.

Your voice carries more than words.

Confidence grows every time a child raises their hand without hesitation. Every time an adult speaks up in a meeting and feels heard. Every time someone orders at a restaurant, answers the phone, or tells a story, without anxiety getting in the way.
Speech therapy creates those moments. And those moments add up to a life lived more fully.

Braces straighten the teeth, but they don’t teach the mouth where to rest.

After braces come off, the tongue, lips, and jaw all need to learn their proper resting posture. If the tongue stays low in the mouth or pushes on the teeth, it can slowly move teeth out of alignment again.

For many kids, this doesn’t happen automatically. That’s where myofunctional therapy can help. We teach the muscles of the mouth and face how to work together so those beautiful orthodontic results last.

Allergies can quietly affect how your mouth rests throughout the day.

When the nose feels blocked or stuffy, many people start breathing through their mouth without realizing it. Over time, this can lead to a low tongue posture and open-mouth resting posture instead of the tongue resting on the roof of the mouth with the lips closed.

If allergies seem to be affecting breathing or mouth posture, a collaborative approach can help. Addressing airway health alongside myofunctional therapy can support healthier breathing habits.

Five years ago, we took a big step forward.

After nearly 30 years of serving our community with speech and hearing services, the Center for Orofacial Myology evolved into a fully holistic myofunctional clinic. We expanded our focus to address the root causes of breathing, sleep, oral function, and facial development.

Since then, we have helped hundreds of patients improve how they breathe, sleep, eat, and grow. What started as a small shift in direction has grown into a practice dedicated to whole-person care and lasting change.

We are proud of how far we have come and grateful to the families, providers, and patients who have trusted us along the way.

Here’s to the first five years of this new chapter and many more ahead.

For many kids, thumb sucking is a comfort tool. When we take the habit away, we need to replace it with something else their hands and brains can focus on.

In this video, our therapist shares a few simple toys and sensory tools that help keep little hands busy and minds distracted, especially during the times thumb sucking tends to sneak back in.
