Grande Prairie Myofunctional Therapy

About This Business

Grande Prairie Myofunctional Therapy, located in Grande Prairie, Alberta, Canada, is a specialized practice focused on providing personalized myofunctional therapy services to patients of all ages. The company's approach is centered around the understanding that every patient is uniquely different, and therefore, each therapy plan is tailored to meet the individual needs and lifestyle of each patient. Generally, patients are seen every two weeks, but these intervals can vary based on the patient's progress and specific requirements. The therapy program involves prescribing a series of myofunctional exercises that the patient works on, with regular evaluations to assess progress and provide new or additional exercises as needed. The ultimate goal of the therapy is to advance the patient to the habituation stage, where they can maintain healthy oral habits independently. Even after graduating from the program, patients receive re-check visits over a period of 3-12 months to ensure retention of the skills learned. The primary objectives of myofunctional therapy include normalizing resting postures, such as ensuring the tongue is fully seated on the palate, lips are together without strain, nasal breathing is patent, and teeth are slightly apart for an ideal freeway space. Additionally, the therapy aims to normalize eating, chewing, and swallowing patterns. Grande Prairie Myofunctional Therapy offers a range of services, including online appointments, in-person appointments, and therapy to support pre and post-operative tongue-tie release. They also provide educational presentations to raise awareness about the importance of orofacial myofunctional therapy in achieving optimal oral health and smile. By focusing on personalized treatment plans and ongoing support, Grande Prairie Myofunctional Therapy helps patients unlock their best oral health and smile, enhancing their overall quality of life. With its commitment to tailored therapy and patient-centric approach, Grande Prairie Myofunctional Therapy stands out as a leading provider of myofunctional therapy services in the region.
