Event Information

Course Description

We have all seen it – and once you see it, you can’t “un-see” it! It’s mouth breathing or open mouth posture and either, as speech professionals, are we more aware as we are learning more about this – or are there more people with open mouth posture?

TalkTools Instructor, Monica Purdy, will be looking at what is – and what is not – proper oral resting posture. She will present the latest evidence and research on the impacts of open mouth posture and provide key strategies to move your “mouth breather” clients to “nose breather” – as well as demonstrating proper breathing techniques and exercises – that you can practice yourself!

Learning Outcomes

Participants will be able to:

Identify proper oral resting posture.
Apply 3 strategies to mitigate open mouth posture.
Demonstrate 2 techniques to facilitate proper breathing.

Excellent course with specific assessment and treatment exercises

Very helpful course.

What a great practical course. Thank you!

Great course.

very interesting course

Great course! Provided many ideas and specific activities for working on open mouth posture.

Very good class thank you

I feel that the 10 strategies were not laid out clearly, not sure what I learned.

Helpful ideas for clients Ihave right now.

This information will be extremely helpful working with kiddos in early intervention.

More information on treatment tips was what I was looking for rather than so much background information which I have heard in several prior courses

I loved this webinar however, I would like the video of the presenter to be bigger as she did demonstrations throughout the course.

This was highly informative!

Great practical tips from Monica as always :)

Me ha gustado mucho el curso, me hubiera gustado más ejercicios orientados a los bebés.

Excellent information that is useful for referral guidance and better communication with caregivers in regard to open-mouth breathing and purpose of addressing in Tx sessions. Good ideas for new exercises too.

I really loved this course

This was a great course on open mouth posture. I see this often in the preschool population. Great practical strategies to evaluate the tongue and jaw and treat open mouth posture.

This was a great course and I am interested in more courses.

Good course

Good course. The presenter gave good background and helpful treatment ideas.

Excellent course!

This course was so helpful for some quick strategies or tools to look for with open mouth posture. I feel I have a good start of tools to work on open mouth posture. I also feel I have a good grasp of when to refer to ENT, oral facial myologist, etc. This course is great for SLPs who want some quick tips, but we know when to refer out as well.

GREAT!

Great !

Met expectations

very informative workshop

I really enjoy the combination of research and practical hands on tools I can use with my pediatric clients. The 2-4 hour time frame makes it realistic to complete and the content is always great! I really enjoyed Monica's presentation style as well since she uses a nice combination of pictures, videos and case presentations!

OTR
