PediatricSLPArticulation and PhonologyFeeding and Swallowing
Mouth-breathing is a maladaptive, compensatory behavior. Human facial anatomy was designed for breathing to occur through the nose.

The harmful effects of mouth-breathing in children are becoming more well-understood. This handout provides a brief overview of information for caregivers, parents, therapists, and other professionals regarding how mouth-breathing can affect multiple facets of development.
