Orofacial Disorder is a type of Myofunctional disorder, which affects the muscles. These disorders are muscle disorders of the face, mouth, lips, or jaw as a result of chronic mouth breathing.

And recent studies on this disorder are not available. Nonetheless, according to previous research, it was proved that 38% of numerous populations gave OMD. This disorder is more in children with speech/articulation problems (Kellum, 1992).
