What is Airway 555?

Airway 555 is a self-guided myofunctional therapy program designed to help improve breathing habits, tongue posture, lip strength, swallowing patterns, and oral function through simple daily exercises.

Yes. Think of it like a home physical therapy program.

Just like physical therapy exercises help retrain the body, myofunctional therapy helps retrain the muscles of the mouth, tongue, face, and breathing system.

Airway 555 was designed for patients and families who want a simple, structured way to practice consistently at home.

A good analogy is physical therapy.

Some people do very well following exercises independently at home. Others benefit from more coaching, accountability, and hands-on guidance.

Self-Guided is ideal for patients who:

  • Prefer flexibility
  • Are motivated to work independently
  • Want an affordable daily support system
  • Need structure and consistency

Clinic-Guided is better for patients who:

  • Want more “hand-holding”
  • Need accountability and monitoring
  • Have more complex issues
  • Want exercises customized by a provider
  • Are combining therapy with appliances or treatment

Yes. Airway 555 includes a clinic portal designed for dentists, orthodontists, myofunctional therapists, airway providers, and other practitioners.

Providers can:

  • Assign customized exercise programs
  • Monitor patient progress
  • Support compliance and accountability
  • Guide patients remotely or in-office
  • Integrate therapy alongside treatment plans

Absolutely. Many providers use Airway 555 as a continuation or maintenance program after active treatment.

Just like physical therapy exercises are often continued after recovery, myofunctional therapy exercises may help reinforce healthy breathing and muscle habits long-term.

This allows patients to continue guided exercises independently even after completing in-office care.

No. Airway 555 is designed to support and reinforce healthy function.

Just like stretching alone cannot fix every orthopedic problem, exercises alone may not address every airway or structural issue.

Some patients may also need orthodontics, expansion, appliances, medical care, or provider-guided therapy.

Myofunctional therapy is like going to the gym or physical therapy.

Doing exercises once in a while usually does not create lasting change. Small daily habits practiced consistently over time are what help retrain muscle patterns.

Children, teens, and adults looking to improve:

  • Mouth breathing
  • Poor tongue posture
  • Weak lip seal
  • Incorrect swallowing habits
  • Snoring and airway-related habits
  • Oral muscle coordination

The program is designed around short, manageable daily routines that can fit easily into everyday life.
