Every child has the potential to grow an attractive, well-defined face. But why do some teenagers develop long, narrow faces, sunken cheekbones, receded chins, or crooked teeth? The answer often lies in mouth breathing and poor tongue posture.
🧐 What Causes Facial Changes?
Facial development is influenced by:
- Breathing through the nose.
- Keeping lips gently closed.
- Proper tongue posture (resting on the roof of the mouth).
- Correct swallowing.
💡 Did You Know?
60% of facial growth occurs by age 4, and 90% by age 12.
Early intervention with nasal breathing and proper tongue posture is essential for optimal development.
👃 How to Start: Nose Unblocking Exercise
A simple exercise to encourage nasal breathing:
1️⃣ Take a small, quiet breath in and out through your nose.
2️⃣ Pinch your nose and hold your breath while walking a few paces.
3️⃣ When you need to breathe, do so through your nose and calm your breathing quickly.
4️⃣ Repeat 5-6 times.
🌟 Progress slowly to holding your breath for up to 80 paces, and experience lasting nasal clarity!
🏆 This proven method has helped countless children and adults improve breathing, reduce symptoms like snoring or congestion, and support healthy facial development.
