Does your child sleep with their mouth open or breathe mostly through the mouth?
It might look harmless — but long-term mouth breathing can cause several health issues.
Here’s why you should pay attention 👇
1.Frequent Cough and Blocked Nose
Mouth breathing is often linked to adenoid enlargement or chronic nasal blockage.
2.Poor Sleep and Tiredness
Children who breathe through the mouth often snore or sleep restlessly, leading to fatigue and lack of focus in school.
3.Facial Growth Changes
Continuous mouth breathing can affect jaw and facial structure development over time.
4.Dry Mouth and Bad Breath
Breathing through the mouth dries up saliva, leading to dental problems and bad breath.
🩺 What You Can Do:
If you notice these signs, consult an ENT Specialist to check for adenoids, allergies, or nasal obstruction. Early treatment helps your child breathe easily and sleep better.
