The dizziness and vertigo associated with the disorder is soooo unbearable

Thank you so much

Hey, what did you do? I can't look down or towards my left. I have earache, head ache, shoulder and neck pain. I get vertigo too. Did youfeel this as well?

Daniel, I have a bad habit of sucking the left side of my upper teeth in my mouth during the day and I do grind my teeth while sleeping and wear a mouth guard,it was recommended by my dentist to see a myofunctional therapist to help stop this habit. Do you have an email I can send a note to? Thanks as it is hard to find someone who does myofunctional therapy. Cindy

My child has larger tonsil 8 month,but no pain

I suck too lol

Very informative Danielle, thank you.

i can't breathe in that position

Hi! where do you get your malocclusion models? I really enjoy your information!! Thank you!

Do TMD also leads to left knee pain?

When I was a kid, it was suggested that my jaw be broken, thank God my dad said no. I guess in the 60's that was the only treatment.

she is so sweet and sexy

Im 55 and have had sever asthma most of my life. However, over the last 5 years I've noticed that after I eat food, I begin to have what "feels" like an asthma attack, but when I burp the asthma feeling goes away completely! Sometimes I burp right away, but if I eat too fast I may struggle to breath and burp an hour later and again, totally fine. This does not sound like asthma and I don't really deal with acid reflux or that feeling of it coming up the throat. I wonder if its inflammation in my throat, could the food get stuck and when I burp, more air goes through? Would love your thoughts on this.

I'm going to Myofunctional specialist. 2 years of TMD :(

Can you not say kiddo 200x so annoying and unprofessional.

Been trying to find relief and any sort of treatment since I was 18 I’ve nearly given up hope I’ve told so many doctors.

Hello Danielle, I’m 26 and unfortunately I was diagnosed TMD lately and it’s been 1 year. Now the pain was extremely high with swelling, even the headache, tinnitus, sleep apnea, neck pain. These all are piling up and the shape of my face is changing rapidly. These all are making me depressed and hopeless. After watching your videos, I realized the root cause for my tmj. When I was a kid until 5 years I used to suck my 2 fingers (index and middle) and now I noticed my tongue is not resting at the correct position. I’m suffering with my neck and upper back pain since I was 14 years and went to many physicians and none helped me because they were not aware that my tongue position is not good. These all things happened just because of lack of awareness. You are doing a great job🙏 and I’m looking for your myofunctional Exercises videos for tmj.

Love this informational video!

I as well just go to doctor after doctor and hear the same thing.

I’ve been suffering from TMJ for the last year. I got 3 wisdom teeth removed and frenectomy last May and weeks after I noticed extreme pain in my face and body. Constant neck and shoulder pain, facial pain, facial twitching, list goes on. Oral surgeon never mentioned how crucial myofunctional therapy is before a frenectomy…I have been wearing a splint 24/7 since December, see a myofunctional therapist weekly, and just started PT a few weeks ago. How long did it take for all the symptoms to be cured?

OH MY GOSH WHERE DID YOU GO?!?!?!?! THEY PUT ELECTRODES TO YOUR FACE??? I WANT TO GO TO DOCTOR LIKE THIS

My problem started when I started to lift weights and lots of stress I tried chiropractics and acupuncture but is not healed completely it sucks

Could u do a video either showing us with a person or a talk video about the oral mech motor exam. I hear a lot of speech language pathologists do this

Those are my symptoms exactly, teach me your ways 😭. Congratulations Isabela

You are very cute.

Excellent parent feedback! Supportive parents are a huge component to a successful outcome!

Did your TMD affect your ability to speak without pain? I'm finding I'm avoiding speaking because of the discomfort it gives me ☹️

Did you get splint?

why do people say put the tounge behind the teeth, which one is correct , on the ridge or there

thanks info but when is books reading time tongue rest position always roof of the mouth ? soft pressure or hard pressure roof of the mouth?

What kinda excercises

If you one day did have a book I would check it out 😉😉😉

What an Amazeing feedback from the awesome mother! Noted!

Girl. This is me. Any hope for someone in their 30's or later?

where were your headaches located? i believe i have a tongue thrust and my head hurts so bad in the middle of my eyebrows

Did you have ear clogging issue?

Thanks a lot. RESPECT from India

Just curious, is it normal to experience some discomfort/fatigue in the jaw when switching to proper tongue posture/nose breathing? After a few hours of being consistent with it my jaw just gets fairly fatigued/sore. I also do deal with TMJ issues/jaw and neck soreness. I'd imagine its because i've never engaged those muscles my entire life and that it would get easier with time but i just want to make sure its not a bad sign or something. Thanks.

Hello Danielle, do you have any advice for how to chew our food properly? I notice it is difficult to chew my food however I am swallowing correctly. It makes me believe that I am doing something wrong. I know that our mouth should be closed, but is there a correct way to chew our food or does it matter? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

you got such a sweet voice, soothing

I like to observe people specially after knowing how to mew and just realised that Cristiano Ronaldo is a mouth breather! If you look at his side profile and his body posture you see all the patters of a mouth breath, yet he has a square and symmetrical face!

I've recently discovered that it is not normal to swallow with your tongue thrusting forward! For as long as I can remember in my 18 years on this Earth, I've always swallowed like that. Everybody that I know has always told me that I chew and swallow very loud and wonder if tongue thrust is the cause of that. Also, surprisingly, I never developed the tongue thrust gap in my teeth, but I do have overcrowding teeth since I too realized that I had a bad habit of resting my tongue on the bottom, especially when I'm playing the violin, but I have been Mewing for 2 months as of now. (Mewing also helped slow down my bruxism!)

Hey Danielle, my son was just diagnosed with tmj after 2 years of nonstop persistent temple headaches and jaw pain, were your headaches mainbly in your temporalis area? we have exhausted ourselves looking for dr's

hi i'm 15 years old. my face is really long and i always thought it was just me, but over the years I've had people point out how long my face is. I'm worried that my face is forever changed because of my bad tongue posture. If i start these exercises now and continue into adulthood, will my face not be as round? please i'm desperate for some advice, i hate the way that i look. i also notice that my chin protrudes from a side view, and is pretty large. should i seek cosmetic surgery in the future? will this therapy make my face shorter or wider, and get rid of it's longness? edit: i'm turning 16 in 3 months btw

I suffer ! Suffer from constant pain associated with TMJ!

Hi! My palate width is 25mm. Is this why I have big difficulties mewing? I’ve heard that the palate width need to be atleast 36mm to fit the tongue on the roof of the mouth comfortably

I wish I would've caught this when I was a child and still growing. I'm afraid my face will unfortunately be elongated forever even with tongue thrust treatment. How long does it take to see improvement in your teeth?

On the alveolar ridge but not against the incisive papilla right? When i Thouch the the papilla it touches my teeth

My 6 yo has large tonsils and disturbed breathing
