"The REMastered sleep water bottle is a wonderful adjunct to myofunctional therapy. It really helps my patients strengthen and tone the back of the tongue and work on improving tongue thrust swallow habits. I’ve tried it myself and you can really feel the back of the tongue engaging and strengthening with each use." Dr. Soroush Zaghi, MD, ENT, Otolaryngology Sleep Surgeon
Sleep Disordered Breathing A Silent Epidemic Among Children Sleep Disordered Breathing not only refers to breathing difficulties during sleep, but it is also a root cause for many other symptoms that children frequently exhibit. These symptoms are often left untreated or misdiagnosed. These sleeping issues stem from airway disruption during sleep. As a child's breathing is restricted, their body reacts as though the child is choking, resulting in lower oxygen levels, higher heart rate and higher blood pressure.
The first stage of Myobrace® treatment is habit correction and it involves teaching the patient to breathe through the nose instead of the mouth, retraining the tongue to rest in the correct position, swallow the right way and keep the lips together when not eating or speaking. By focusing on correcting these oral habits that are causing crooked teeth and poor jaw growth, the child will have the best possible chance to grow their jaws to their proper and full size which allows the teeth to come in straight and often eliminates the need for braces later on.
