The Breathe Institute
The Breathe Institute is an organization that promotes healthier breathing through a range of services. Its affiliates address a range of structural and behavioral issues that can hinder people’s breathing and thus dramatically affect the quality of their sleep and their overall quality of life. Tongue tie is one such issue. As an Affiliate of the Breathe Institute, Dr. Morgan works alongside other professionals to advance awareness and treatment of disorders that affect the way people breathe.
The Breathe Institute is headquartered in California, but their Affiliates and Ambassadors form a larger network. Dr. Morgan is proud to be able to apply the Institute’s principles to help patients in East Texas.
A Multidisciplinary Approach
Many people make the mistake of thinking that treating tongue tie is as simple as performing a frenectomy, a short procedure that loosens the tissue that connects the tongue to the floor of the mouth. In most cases, however, successfully treating tongue tie is more complex. It often requires that patients undergo myofunctional therapy.
Myofunctional therapy trains patients to use their tongue properly and keep it in its correct resting position. When this therapy is performed both before and after a frenectomy, it enables patients to truly experience freedom from the symptoms and complications of tongue tie. Our practice has an in-house myofunctional therapist who can help patients master the use of their tongue and thus enjoy fewer speech problems, easier breathing, and more.
