❤️‍🩹 Let’s do some breath work for healing!

Breathwork is important for the mouth and overall oral health for several reasons:

✨Proper Oxygenation: Effective breathing ensures that tissues in the mouth receive adequate oxygen, which is essential for maintaining healthy gums and oral tissues.

👄 Reducing Dry Mouth: Breathing through the nose, rather than the mouth, helps prevent dry mouth (xerostomia). Mouth breathing can lead to a dry oral environment, which increases the risk of tooth decay, bad breath, and gum disease.

🙌 Optimal Oral pH: Nose breathing helps maintain a balanced pH level in the mouth, which is crucial for preventing the growth of harmful bacteria.

💪 Jaw and Facial Development: For children, proper nasal breathing is crucial for the normal development of the jaw and facial structure. Mouth breathing can lead to malocclusion and other orthodontic issues.

❤️‍🩹 Reducing Inflammation: Proper breathing techniques can help reduce inflammation and stress, which can indirectly benefit oral health by reducing the risk of conditions like gum disease that are exacerbated by inflammation.

💗 Supporting Healthy Microbiome: Nose breathing supports a healthy oral microbiome by filtering and humidifying the air before it reaches the mouth, helping to maintain a balanced environment in the mouth.

Let’s breathe together!
