Children’s oral health is an essential pillar of their overall development. From the age of 3, a preventive consultation at Nuumoon allows for the detection and correction of oro-myo-functional disorders (OMFD), such as mouth breathing, atypical swallowing, or prolonged sucking habits. These dysfunctions can impact cranio-facial growth, dental alignment, and even language development. <\/span><\/p>\n

                    Children’s oral health is an essential pillar of their overall development. From the age of 3, a preventive consultation at Nuumoon allows for the detection and correction of oro-myo-functional disorders (OMFD), such as mouth breathing, atypical swallowing, or prolonged sucking habits. These dysfunctions can impact cranio-facial growth, dental alignment, and even language development. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":3481,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[25,24],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3553","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-kids-en","category-latest-news-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuumoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3553","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuumoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuumoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuumoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuumoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3553"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/nuumoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3553\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4749,"href":"https:\/\/nuumoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3553\/revisions\/4749"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuumoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3481"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuumoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3553"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuumoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3553"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuumoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3553"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
