What effect on breathing?

IF LINGUAL REHABILITATION IS ESSENTIAL, IT ALSO DETERMINES THE PATIENT'S BREATHING MODE. A HIGH RESTING POSTURE OF THE TONGUE'S POSTERIOR PART ALONE FORMS A SEAL PREVENTING AIR FROM PASSING THROUGH THE ORAL CAVITY.

• Again, it's the notion of comfort described by Lledo that will permanently restore the establishment of nasal breathing by the domino effect.

“The tongue is a breathing organ. The restoration of nasal breathing must go through the reeducation of myofunctional praxis.”

Dr. Takashi ONO.

DO THE TEST:

• Place the lingual dome on the palate.
• Try to breathe through the mouth.
Impossible...

"This double functional necessity, lingual posterior (1) and occlusal (2), too often overlooked by orofacial function rehabilitators, is likely one of the causes of frequent rehabilitation failures."
