Poor Airway and TMJ issues can eventually drive your central nervous system crazy !

A high percentage of the young children I see already have symptoms of jaw joint dysfunction.  I find these symptoms often coincide with sleep apnea,  snoring, stomach aches or upper respiratory symptoms,  allergies, dyslexia, and coordination difficulties. 

Take a closer look at this video. It illustrates how a serious open bite, severely incorrect resting tongue posture and swallowing pattern can affect the TMJ, head and neck posture and ultimately the entire musculoskeletal and central nervous system.

​If you think you may have an upper airway resistance issue, contact your physician to get a full medical evaluation. In our practice, we recommend a team approach that includes an ENT specialist,  cranial osteopathic physician, myofunctional therapist and a functional dentist.
