These Before and After dental photos are a continuation of posts about one of my patients, Shay Lowe Shull of Mix and Match Mama, who shared her experience with orofacial myofunctional therapy at Honor Franklin Myofunctional & Speech Clinic and orthodontics at Adams & McBride Orthodontics in my blog dated 4-19-2016 and showed her excellent results on 5-3-2016. Results like this are another example why IAOM Certified Orofacial Myofunctional Therapists are a necessary part of the orthodontic team in helping orthodontists achieve successful results.
If an Orofacial Myofunctional Disorder (OMD) is not corrected, it can be detrimental to a successful orthodontic result and can be a contributing factor to orthodontic relapse. Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy (OMT) corrects muscle patterns which can have a powerful impact on tooth alignment and stabilization. Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy does not replace orthodontic treatment. Excellent patients like Shay make Drs Adams and McBride and Dr. Honor Franklin’s jobs successful. Thank you, Shay!!!!
