- This are called Tongue Tamers and they are using to fight Tongue Thursting?
What is Tongue Thrusting?
Tongue thrusting, is the habit of placing the tongue in the wrong position during swallowing, either too far forward or to the sides. It is estimated that every 24 hours you swallow a total of 1,200 to 2,000 times, with about four pounds of pressure per swallow. This constant pressure of the tongue will force the teeth and arches out of alignment. In addition the pressure exerted while swallowing, nervous thrusting also pushes the tongue against the teeth while it is at rest. This is an involuntary, subconscious habit that is difficult to correct.
What are the Consequences to Tongue Thrusting?
The force of the tongue against the teeth is an important factor in contributing to malformation (“bad bite”). Many orthodontists have had the discouraging experience of completing dental treament, with great results, only to discover that the patient had a tongue thrust swallowing pattern. This continual pattern will push the teeth
out of alignment and reverse the orthodontic work.
Tongue Tamers
Tongue Tamers or Tongue Reminders are usually used behind your front four teeth. They look like mini spikes that help to train and remind your tongue to use the roof of your mouth to swallow instead of pushing against your teeth.
Common Problems
Because they are there to help remind your tongue to stay away from your front teeth, your tongue may feel sore or “raw” when you first get your Tongue Tamers. This is common in the first few weeks. A warm salt water rinse using one tablespoon of salt to one cup of warm water and rinsing for 12 minutes will help alleviate initial discomfort.
Tongue tamers are smaller than your orthodontic brackets. Just like orthodontic brackets, you must be careful with what you eat. It is not uncommon for them to be accidentally swallowed as they are not attached to a wire, but bonded to the tooth. This is OK and will not hurt you. Let our office know before you next appointment that it will need to be rebonded at your next visit.

Hey ToothTime! I’m near the end of my treatment for braces and my next appointment the procedure is called 717/AGC ck to setup. The procedure is supposed to take 30 minutes. I was wondering what my next appointment is? What does the procedure mean? Am I getting my braces off?
Hi! I love your videos and I was wondering if becoming an orthodontist is worth it? Also, I was wondering how hard dental and medical school is followed by a orthodontic program?
It's worth it if you have the passion for it ! and if you want to do at least 10 years of school after you graduate of high school! 😉 Thanks for watching and don't forget to like our video that helps a lot!! 🧡🦷
