Osteopathic Treatment for Tooth Positioning

As a child grows, their face changes shape quite dramatically. The position of the teeth is greatly affected by this change in shape of the head as well as by the way the child breathes. If the child is able to breathe through their nose this allows the sinuses and jaw to develop in a better shape, which allows the teeth more room in the mouth.

Osteopathy influences this process by decreasing any strain in the face, neck and throat, and allowing the sinuses to work as efficiently as possible.
