Nebraska Myofunctional Specialties

Beyond braces and cavity checks, many families in southeast Lincoln branch out—if a child, teen, or adult needs help with tongue-tie release, chronic mouth breathing, or the tricky habit of thumb-sucking years past kindergarten, there’s a targeted solution. Nebraska Myofunctional Specialties handles those exact concerns under one roof for patients of all ages. Here you won’t just talk about straight teeth; you’ll look at lips, tongue, and breathing patterns that shape long-term oral health. It’s not orthodontia, though braces may still enter the conversation—this clinic looks at function before form, offering tongue-tie revisions, myofunctional therapy, and airway-focused screenings for kids who snore or grind while asleep. Parents in Waverly or Hickman who notice a lisp, mouth breathing, or sluggish school performance often start here. A quick call sets the visit in motion at the split-level suite in 8911 Whispering Wind Rd. Clinicians work with local pediatricians and speech therapists—no referral stampede required—then dive into tongue exercises, breathing drills, and sometimes laser release when anatomy is the bottleneck. Schedule by ringing (402) 759-2561; once you’re in the door, the map stays the same—plug directions into your phone from Nebraska Myofunctional Specialties’ stable Google location each trip.
