Orthodontic Problems

The connection between chronic mouth breathing and serious dental problems:

It is a little known fact that constant breathing through the mouth is the major factor contributing to malocclusions (misalignment of the teeth).

Correction of mouth breathing to nasal breathing at an early age can in most cases prevent the need for expensive braces later in life. The establishment of nasal breathing is critical. ATUNE also refers at risk clients to Dentists who can provide supportive early intervention strategies which when combined with breathing retraining most often prevents malocclusions later in life.
