Your breath shapes your smile! 🌬️

Mouth breathing might seem harmless, but it can quietly affect your dental health over time. Breathing through your mouth can dry out your saliva; your mouth’s natural defense against bacteria. Which can lead to more cavities, bad breath, and irritated gums.

Over time, it can even impact how well you sleep and how your body heals. The good news? With a few simple habit changes, like nasal breathing practice and proper tongue posture, you can protect your smile and support your overall health.

Awareness is the first step toward change, your smile (and body) will thank you. 💫

Mouth breathing in children can impact not just their dental health, but also facial development and sleep quality.

It may lead to:

🚨 Increased cavities
🚨 Misaligned teeth
🚨 Speech issues

A simple switch to nasal breathing can support healthy development and reduce dental issues long-term.

📣 Ask your dentist or pediatrician if you notice signs!

💧 Saliva: Your Mouth’s Natural Defense

Saliva washes away food particles, neutralizes acids, and helps prevent cavities.
Mouth breathing reduces saliva, leaving teeth vulnerable to decay.

👃 Nasal breathing keeps your mouth closed, maintaining ideal moisture levels for a healthy smile.

💡 Tip: If you wake up with a dry mouth, you might be a night-time mouth breather.

🌬️ Mouth vs Nose Breathing – Why it Matters

Breathing through your mouth over time can:

🔸 Dry out your mouth
🔸 Lower saliva levels (which fight bacteria)
🔸 Increase plaque buildup
🔸 Raise your risk of gum disease & bad breath

On the flip side, nasal breathing helps filter air and supports your mouth’s natural defenses.

🦷✨ Happy National Dental Hygiene Month! ✨🦷

This month, we’re celebrating the amazing dental hygienists who help keep our smiles healthy, and who often play a key role in recognizing oral function issues early on. 💪

Did you know? Hygienists are often the first to notice signs of:
👅 Tongue or lip ties
😮 Mouth breathing
🫁 Oral habits that affect growth and airway development

We’re so grateful for our hygiene partners who look beyond the teeth; helping patients improve not just their oral health, but their overall wellness. 💙

Here’s to brighter smiles, better function, and the incredible teamwork that makes it all possible!
