In this episode of The DOC Podcast, I have the pleasure of hosting Brittny Murphy, a registered dental hygienist and certified orofacial myologist. Brittny shares her journey into the field of orofacial myology and her experiences as an educator and mentor.
The discussion covers a comprehensive overview of orofacial myofunctional therapy, its benefits, diagnostic and treatment protocols, and the importance of collaborative care. Brittny also provides insights into the implications of oral habits, the role of non-nutritive sucking, the use of guidance appliances and myo munchies, and offers practical advice for parents and practitioners in managing orofacial myofunctional disorders.
This episode is packed with valuable information for healthcare professionals and parents dealing with airway and myofunctional concerns.
