Myofunctional therapy Part 2: Prevention of dentofacial disorders.

AirwayCentric approach to prevention of dentofacial disorders. The correct development of functions is important for the prevention of dentofacial disorders from the first days of life. The first and foremost function, to which all others are adapting, is nasal breathing. The AirwayCentric® method focuses on nasal breathing during early development and throughout childhood to promote: Neurobehavioural development and the brain, development of the craniofacial and respiratory complex, correct dental occlusion, proper and restful sleep and to improve performance and life overall. By working at the same time on orofacial functions and structures, many dentofacial disorders can be prevented.
