Oromyofunctional Therapy: a Rehabilitation Program for OSA in Children With Down Syndrome and Prader-Willi Syndrome

Orofacial myofunctional therapy consists of a set of oropharyngeal exercises to correct abnormal orofacial functions such as mouth breathing and a caudal tongue position, and strengthen upper airway muscles (e.g., muscles of the tongue and soft palate) that are involved in maintaining airway patency.
