Pre/Post Release

Oral restrictions: Tongue tie (lingual), lip, or cheek (buccal) restrictions that are impacting function such as speech, eating, swallowing, or airway development

can be addressed by qualified providers (e.g., Pediatric Dentist, ENT). Speech Spot, offers comprehensive support, including pre and post-neuromuscular retraining of muscles, along with preparation for the procedure.

Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy

From 5 years of age through adulthood, Speech Spot addresses atypical and maladaptive patterns stemming from abnormal function within the facial, neck, and oral musculature. This encompasses issues such as mouth breathing, oral habits, tongue/lip ties, tongue thrust, and atypical chewing and swallowing patterns. OMT may also be a part of a collaborative

treatment plan for sleep apnea.

OMT to compliment treatments

Improving orofacial muscle strength and function is vital for optimal dental health. Strengthening and retraining these muscles can enhance dental outcomes. Correct tongue posture also plays a crucial role in preventing orthodontic relapse post-treatment.

TMJ Dysfunction

Improper tongue position, teeth grinding, clenching, and stress are key factors in TMJ dysfunction, often linked to airway issues. OMT targets these issues by improving breathing, tongue posture, lip seal, and swallowing patterns, offering potential relief for TMD.

Teletherapy

Therapy services are provided through a secure, HIPAA-compliant portal specifically tailored for clients located in the state of Virginia. Clients must reside within Virginia in accordance with licensing regulations.
