Faces grow around the tongue

The tongue plays a key role in guiding proper facial growth and development.
When it rests on the roof of the mouth and moves well, it helps form wide dental arches, supports airway health, and promotes balanced facial structure. 🦷👃

But when tongue function is limited — whether due to a restricted range of motion (like in a tongue tie), low muscle tone, etc — it can impact:
🔹 Jaw and facial development
🔹 Tooth alignment
🔹 Breathing and sleep
🔹 Long-term oral function

At The Breathe Institute, we take a functional approach — addressing the root causes to support healthy growth from the inside out.

I can't emphasize how important it is to get evaluated by somebody who know ties. Not all providers have training in how to look for ties, how to treat ties, and the impact of ties on function and oral facial development.

Proper tongue posture involves resting the tongue up ⬆️ against the palate.

1. The tip should rest just behind the front teeth, but not touching them.

2. The middle and posterior sections should be in contact with the roof of the mouth.

3. The teeth should be slightly apart, and the lips should be closed.

Maintaining this posture can help with proper nasal breathing, optimal dental and facial development.

Where does your tongue rest when you are not speaking or eating?? 👅👅
