Mouth breathing is far more than a habit—it’s a developmental force.

Every breath taken through the mouth alters tongue posture, jaw position, and the balance of forces that shape the face.
Over time, this can narrow dental arches, elongate the face, and even influence brain development by affecting sleep quality and oxygen delivery.

It’s not cosmetic. It’s structural—and it’s happening right now, every time a child breathes through their mouth.

The reality of upper airway obstruction is that an ENT needs to acknowledge three truths at once:
1. Adenotonsillectomy is often highly effective.
2. It does not normalise breathing in every child.
3. Persistent obstruction is frequently multifactorial.

Adenotonsillectomy significantly improves paediatric OSA in many children. However, residual OSA occurs in roughly 20–40 percent, and is higher in:
• Obese children
• Children with craniofacial narrowing
• Allergic rhinitis
• Neuromuscular issues

The important thing to understand is that airway obstruction is not just lymphoid tissue. It also involves:
• Maxillary width
• Nasal resistance
• Tongue posture
• Muscle tone
• Habitual mouth breathing

This is why claims made by anyone that they can always fix a problem with their type of therapy, be it surgery, maxillary expansion, or myofunctional therapy is not giving parents the true perspectives they deserve

Often overlooked. So simple yet so important 🙌🏼

When breathing patterns and oral posture are supported, the airway can work more efficiently and adapt more sustainably over time.
This is why addressing function matters.
