Usually happens when a kid gets sick and they get congested.
So we have a mouth.
It's cool.
You can breathe out of your mouth whenever you want.
But that becomes the default.
Mouth breathing is supposed to be an emergency pathway, not the default.
And then the kid just remains a mouth breather on and on and on throughout their youth.
I was one of these kids.
And they found that if you mouth breathe for long enough, it changes your facial shape and it doesn't allow your mouth to grow as wide as it should.
Yeah, so if your mouth is open all the time, you have this upper palate here that tends to grow up.
I'm a great example, which is like completely malocclusion, which is why I had teeth pulled and braces and headgear and all that crap.
So when the mouth is too small, teeth grow.
have nowhere to grow, so they grow in crooked.
That's why we have crooked teeth.
People say, oh, it's a tooth problem.
It's a mouth problem.
And if you have a mouth that's too small for your teeth, what's gonna happen to the airway?
It's harder to breathe.
Meanwhile, that upper palate of your mouth keeps growing up.
And it takes away real estate from your science passages, which makes it harder to breathe through your nose.
