It walks practitioners through assessment, documentation, and a sequence of exercises designed to build awareness before strength, and strength before habituation. For SLPs who have completed myofunctional training, dental professionals collaborating with an orofacial myofunctional therapy provider, or graduate students just learning the field, the book functions as a working manual you can return to between sessions. It pairs naturally with TalkTools® courses on oral placement and myofunctional approaches, and with The Marshalla Guide for clinicians treating overlapping speech sound and orofacial issues. Browse the full Books & Resources collection for additional clinical references. Key Benefits Structured therapy exercises targeting tongue thrust, open mouth posture, and other orofacial myofunctional disorders. Treatment progressions clinicians can put into practice during the next scheduled session. Assessment tools and documentation strategies that support data-driven progress notes. An evidence-based approach to myofunctional therapy grounded in current research. Useful as a shared reference between SLPs and dental teams managing the same client. Ideal for: Orofacial myofunctional therapists building or refining a treatment program. SLPs with myofunctional training who want a go-to clinical reference. Dental professionals working alongside an OMT provider on shared cases. Graduate students and clinical fellows learning myofunctional therapy approaches for the first time.
