The growth in number of children having oro facial myo – functional disorders with affected functions such as swallowing, speech, breathing and mastication is increasing with each new generation. Any abnormality in the functions and postures of the intra oral and facial musculature can have a negative effect on dental growth and should be treated before they cause any sort of malformation of the dental arches and other bone deformities. The data provided do not come from one only one field of specialists but from different ones, whether dentistry, orthodontics, pediatrics or speech therapists. Oral myofunctional therapy (OMFT) may still seem a relatively new subject to recent generations of therapists but the reality is that it has been practiced for more than one hundred years. The purpose of this article is to discuss integral features of Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy as well as making a difference between the two philosophies and its important role in orthodontics so that children benefit from a complete approach leading to better development so that they can reach their full genetic potential. Orthodontic treatment alone, in the presence of bad habits, is not enough to solve the orthodontic issues, so it needs to be combined with myofunctional treatment.
