Tongue Posture: An Evolutionary Perspective, Kevin Boyd, DDS
Abstract:
Archaeological evidence indicates that modern-day humans
(Homo sapiens) have been in their present anatomic form (Anatomically Modern
Human-AMH) for at least 200,000 + years. Observations from pre-historic
skeletal and fossil records reveal that H. sapiens has walked the planet for
nearly their entire existence with well-aligned teeth and jaws. Even though
soft tissues don’t get preserved within the fossil record, anthropologists can
nonetheless, with a reasonable degree of scientific certainty, still infer
brain sizes from the cranial volumes of fossilized skulls. So, given that the
resting tongue should occupy the palatal vault in much the same manner as how
the brain occupies the cranial vault, and, that well-aligned jaws and teeth are
a symptom of healthy rest oral posture, it can also be inferred with a similar
degree of certainty that AMH’s lived with well-postured tongues for hundreds of
thousands of years.
In spite of the fact anthropologists have long reported that
human craniofacial volume has been diminishing since the advent of agriculture
in the Middle East some 10-12,000 years ago, there is no evidence to suggest
that the currently prevalent narrowing of jaws and facial bones, with
associated crowding and misalignment of teeth (malocclusion), appeared
appreciably in humans until around the early/mid-17th Century. Since the
early/mid-18th-Century malocclusion prevalence appears to have greatly
increased and accelerated in Western Europe. Furthermore, consistent with these
observations, there is very little evidence of malocclusion in contemporary
indigenous societies that have little or no exposure to modern Western dietary
habits.
A connection appears to exist between the prevalence of
malocclusion and dietary feeding behaviors, especially during the first years
of life. An ancestral pattern of infant and early childhood feeding (IECF), is
typically characterized by exclusive and on-demand breast-feeding for at least
6 months, followed by continued on-demand breast-feeding and weaning (with
fresh and minimally-processed foods) period into the 3rd year of life; evidence
supports that this is the pattern practiced by AMH’s since their first
appearance in the fossil record. The combined efforts of being suckled with
breastmilk and chewing firmly textured weaning foods appears to provide
protection against human malocclusion. Conversely, Modern IECF regimens
typically comprised of cow milk-based commercial infant formulas and weaning
with highly processed pureed baby foods, seem to be associated with malocclusion
etiology.
Certain types of malocclusion are now shown to be associated
with Sleep Disordered Breathing (SDB)/Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), and often
other associated systemic illnesses related to childhood obesity and/or
impaired neurological development in children of all ages. Pediatric
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (p-OSA) is a breathing disorder that has only recently
been shown to negatively impact brain development in children. The disorder is
positively linked to increasing prevalence of Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity
Disorder (ADD/ADHD) and other disruptive childhood behaviors; and, p-OSA is
also now known to be closely associated with a child's inability to
consistently sleep and breathe properly during infancy and/or early childhood.
Healthy sleep was also likely vital to the survival and reproductive fitness of
our ancestors in much the same manner as regular physical activity and
ancestral-type feeding regimens were.
Conclusions
Highly prevalent malocclusion is a common finding among children
raised in industrialized societies; malocclusion is a rare finding in the
pre-Industrial skeletal and fossil records. Many children diagnosed with
SDB/OSA have also been diagnosed with ADD/ADHD and/or malocclusion. Changed
dietary regimens and feeding behaviors during infancy/early childhood seem to
have played a role in the observed increased prevalence of malocclusion since
the Industrial Revolution. We suggest that ancestral-type IEC feeding regimens
are essential for optimum development of the jaws, teeth, face and airway,
thus, such regimens also seem to provide protection against development of
p-OSA, ADD/ADHD, and childhood obesity.
An argument will be developed in this presentation to
support the author’s hypothesis (currently being investigated in Chicago at
Northeastern Illinois University, Dept. Anthropology and Lurie Children’s
Hospital) that ancestral regimens of IECF confer significant health advantages
to children when compared to modern IECF regimen, and that this is best
explained by the ability of the former to confer a foundation for a lifetime of
optimal rest oral tongue posture and associated nasal breathing….especially
during sleep.

Hilary Jacobson, is a certified Swiss holistic lactation
consultant and author of "Mother Food: A breastfeeding diet guide with
lactogenic foods and herbs." Jacobson is a founding member of the
non-profit MOBI Motherhood Intl, an online resource for mothers facing extreme
breastfeeding challenges, especially low milk supply. She says that she
researched "Mother Food" when she experienced persistent and severe
low milk supply with each of her four children. "When I saw how
'lactogenic' foods and herbs helped me make more milk I began to study
mother-food traditions from around the world.
Women have always been aware of foods that help them
breastfeed, and these same foods were the preferred diet in the postpartum.
"The more I learned, the more strongly I felt about creating a resource that
would encapsulate and preserve our mother-food heritage. Once passed down from
mother to daughter, now this knowledge was in danger of being lost."
Today, Hilary Jacobson lives in Oregon where she works as a
writer, speaker, and nutritional mentor for pregnant and breastfeeding mothers.

4-5:30pm The Impact of Birth on Breastfeeding, Sarah
Buckley, MD
The Role of Bodywork in the Treatment of the Breastfed Baby,
Including Treatment as Part of an Integrative Approach to Support the
Tongue-tied Baby:
In this session, Sharon Vallone, a pediatric chiropractor specializing in neuromusculosketal issues that interfere
with breastfeeding will assist us in learning the language of the bodyworker as
well as present the lens by which a thorough biomechanical assessment is made.
She will address the relationship between structure and function in the
breastfeeding dyad, supporting the attendee in learning to make appropriate
lactation assessments and referrals. Dr Vallone will utilize case presentations
that outline specific biomechanical issues and address neonatal compensations
associated with impaired function, paying special attention to the tongue-tied
baby. This session will also offer some instruction to empower parents to
support their infant’s progress.
...'brilliant' - I was left rather speechless. Beautifully
presented talk that realising how little I know about anatomy and function. The
videos and accompanying commentary were illuminating and easy to follow. The
comments on listening to the baby's cry and distinguishing between terror and
the baby talking, were really interesting, and could be applied to other
situations as well.
Overcoming the Complex Challenges of Breastfeeding a Baby
with a Cleft Lip or Palate, Alice Farrow
My talk will begin with a brief overview of the embryology
of the cleft, the relative accuracy of cleft diagnosis, some associated
'malformations', syndromes and sequences, the psychological impact of
ultrasound diagnosis and how to help parents prepare for the birth and
breastfeeding of their cleft affected infant.
Getting breastfeeding off to a good start is absolutely
vital to when there is a cleft lip and/or palate. Many babies will be able to
breastfeed exclusively at the breast (depending on the entity of the cleft).
When there is a delay, or inability to breastfeed, then breast milk expression
should be initiated as early as possible, supplying information and education
to the breastfeeding parent on the most efficient techniques to do so.
Cleft families face a myriad of difficulties for much of the
first year, or year and a half, of the infants life. The parents will be faced
with difficult decisions regarding surgery, and their child will undergo one or
more surgeries in that time, with accompanying medical visits, further
complicating the difficulties of infant feeding and/or milk expression. Low supply
issues are frequent - often due to a less than optimal start,
misinformation/mismanagement of breastfeeding, stress and anxiety, and
difficulty with exclusive pumping.
An overview of pre-surgical orthodontics (if used), surgical
techniques, timing and number of surgeries, and post-operative feeding
restrictions (if applied), vary enormously from surgeon to surgeon and will all
impact breastfeeding differently.
Once the palate have been surgically repaired, there is the
possibility that the cleft affected infant, who was not previously
breastfeeding fully, may transition from bottle to the breast - this is a
delicate time which may require intensive support. Not all babies will go on to
breastfeed autonomously and the breastfeeding parent may need counselling over
the loss of a much hoped for breastfeeding experience.
Alice Farrow's presentation should be mandatory education for everyone working with babies affected by cleft lip and palate as well as their parents. I really appreciate all the personal insight Alice provides and her attention to obstacles parents might face.
Nutrition for Breastfeeding: Eating for a Healthy and Happy Baby, Paul Jaminet, PhD
Great information - makes me want to research nutrition for pregnancy and beyond even more!

"Nothing short of excellent!"
Dr. Sharon Vallone is a graduate of Rutgers University (AB Microbiology 1978) and New York Chiropractic College (1986). She completed her Diplomate in Clinical Chiropractic Pediatrics in 1996 through Palmer College and received her appointment as Fellow in Clinical Chiropractic Pediatrics in 2003.

She is an international speaker, author, and editor of the Journal of Clinical Chiropractic Pediatrics. Sharon brings 25+ years of pediatric chiropractic experience with a primary interest in pregnancy, birth trauma, breastfeeding and problems with infant /toddler neurodevelopment.
Alice Farrow: Seven years ago I was expecting my second child. At a routine sixteen week ultrasound I received the surprising diagnosis of cleft lip and palate. After overcoming the initial shock, I began researching how this would affect breastfeeding. I knew that breastfeeding was unlikely but was stubborn enough to think I could do it anyway! There weren't many resources at the time and the first seven months of my daughter's life would be the most tiring and stressful that I have ever endured. Transitioning her to the breast at seven months (post palate repair) and breastfeeding well into childhood, would make up for all of the early difficulties, but many breastfeeding dyads don't receive enough information and support to enjoy that reward.
Since my own cleft daughter was born I have met a myriad of cleft families, through my work as a peer-counsellor, at cleft conferences, through online parenting groups, and recently through my website - thanks to their experiences and through my own research - I have an increasing awareness of the panorama of problems facing these breastfeeding dyads - only some of them directly related to the cleft. It appears to me that lack of specialised support, especially in the early days, is a big factor in the difficulties of breastfeeding with a cleft lip and palate.
I am an Australian living in Italy and speak both Italian and English. This gives me the chance to speak, and correspond with both parents and cleft surgeons across Europe, the UK, the United States and increasingly other areas of the world. This gives me an insight into the diversity of cleft care internationally, and how this impacts breastfeeding differently from region to region. I keep an eye on developments in national and International standards of cleft team care. My dream is to have IBCLCs recognised as a member of the cleft team so that cleft affected infants will receive continuous breastfeeding support from the moment of diagnosis through to the surgical closure of the cleft and throughout the recovery period.
I am mother to two bilingual (breastfed) children, currently working as a writer, speaker, and volunteer peer counsellor, while also preparing for the IBCLC exam. I have two breastfeeding websites www.cleftlipandpalatebreastfeeding.com and www.languageofinclusion.com
