ABSTRACT
Background
Occlusion alterations can be associated to bad habits (such as thumb sucking, oral breathing, atypical swallowing and labial interposition) which can lead to functional anomalies.
Case report
Three cases are reported with the good results of myofunctional and orthodontic therapy.
Conclusion
When there are bad habits, orthodontics should be combined with a myofunctional therapy.
