An Orofacial Myofunctional Disorder (OMD) is a dysfunctional lip, jaw or tongue position or movement during speech, chewing, swallowing, or at rest. One type of OMD is a tongue thrust, when the tongue rests too far forward in the mouth or protrudes forward during speech or swallowing. OMD's may affect facial skeletal growth and development, chewing, swallowing, speech, occlusion, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) movement, oral hygiene, stability of orthodontic treatment, facial aesthetics, and more. Our speech pathologists Angela Nikolas and Joanna Giakoumatos will be hosting this webinar to provide you with information about OMD and to answer any questions.
