Does your child have any of the following symptoms:
lisp
speech sound errors
picky or selective feeding habits
open bite
poor sleep
snoring
jaw pain
thumb sucking
poor swallow,
open mouth breathing
These could be an indication that your child has an Oromyofunctional Disorder (OMD). How can a Speech Language Pathologist help? At an evaluation, the Speech Language Pathologist will examine the structure and function of the tongue and examine the structure of the oral cavity. From here, an individualized plan may be made. Our SLPs collaborate with related professionals to help improve outcomes. These may include dentists, orthodontists, pediatricians, sleep centers, allergist or otolaryngologists (ENTs).
We have many therapists who specialize in OMD and can conduct an evaluation to help you learn more about your child's oral structure and function.
