WHAT IS OMT?

Exercise for the mouth, face, and airway

Orofacial myofunctional therapy (OMT) is a structured program of exercises and habit training for the tongue, lips, cheeks, and jaw. It targets how these muscles rest and work together every day — while breathing, swallowing, chewing, speaking, and sleeping.

When those patterns are off, they can quietly affect sleep, dental and facial development, feeding, and speech. OMT builds new, healthier habits that last.

The three goals of every OMT program

Lips closed

A relaxed, comfortable lip seal at rest instead of an open-mouth posture.
