According to the National Institute of Health, approximately 38% of the US population suffers from various OMDs, resulting in speech distortion, tongue thrusting, lisps, sleep apnea, and other breathing or eating issues. Children’s Choice Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics uses myofunctional therapy and frenectomy procedures that effectively treat mild to moderate OMDs. Its newly expanded myofunctional solutions include nasal breathing therapy, tongue placement exercises, and proper swallowing techniques to correct disorders in children and restore optimal oral health.
Children’s Choice Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics specialists conduct thorough examinations to target the root causes of myofunctional disorders and create customized dental treatment plans that address them.
The center applies its myofunctional therapy to retrain children’s orofacial muscles and correct functional disorders while enhancing key facial features. This enables children to feed better, speak clearer, and breathe easier over time.
Children’s Choice Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics strives to create a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere for its young patients, with kid-focused treatment rooms and a playtime waiting area. Parents are welcome to stay with their children during treatment.
The clinic’s dentists offer tips on brushing, flossing, and healthy eating to promote good dental hygiene. They offer various procedures to improve oral health, like cleaning, root canal treatment, fillings, dental sealants, white crowns, laser dentistry, IV sedation and other preventive and corrective orthodontic solutions.
