Thank you very much for your interest in attending "Application of Myofunctional Therapy in Dentistry" - with Dr. Yue Weng Cheu from 10th - 11th June 2017 in Singapore.
Course Description:
The School of Linguadontics takes an integrative approach and seeks to address the root cause of problems. Tracing the origins of function and neurology of the stomatognathic system, we learn to appreciate the abundance of resources made available to it for a ‘simple' act of breastfeeding. The coordination of the cranial nerves and other important innervations facilitate the harmonious yet effective operations of many muscles to aid the innate suck-swallow-breathe and rooting reflexes to help babies feed. The rise of the tongue signifies the myofunctional habituation to ensure good oral growth and development, postural alignment, gastrointestinal health, neurological balances and much more. The scope is wide but relevant to the profession of dentistry and the lecture will explore deep and wide into this path less taken - a tongue-centric, airway focused and myofunctional approach to health management.
