7 Reasons Your Child's Pillow Is Deforming Their Face

The first one starts tonight, the moment their head hits the pillow.

Most parents think a face is something a child is born with. It isn't. A child's face is built a little more every single night, while they sleep.

I have looked into thousands of small mouths, and I can often tell how a child sleeps before the parent says a word. The long face. The open lips. The top teeth pushed forward. The tired eyes. Doctors call it an adenoid face, and it does not come from bad luck. It comes from years of sleeping with the mouth open.

And one of the biggest reasons a child sleeps with their mouth open is the one thing nobody checks. Their pillow.

1. An adult pillow was never made for a child's neck

Look at your child's pillow tonight. It is most likely the same size as yours. Too soft and too tall for a small body.

Their head sinks into it and rolls back. Their throat narrows. And their mouth falls open, because it is the only way left to get air.

It looks perfectly comfortable. It is quietly doing the opposite of what a growing child needs.

2. An open mouth changes the way their face grows

When the mouth is closed, the tongue rests against the roof of the mouth. It works like a mold. It widens the upper jaw and pulls the whole face forward.

When the mouth stays open all night, the tongue drops away, and the mold is gone. Over hundreds and hundreds of nights, the face grows down instead of forward.

That is how you get a long face, a set-back chin and teeth with no room to sit straight.

3. The early signs are easy to miss

Most parents have no idea their child is a mouth breather. Check tonight after they fall asleep. These are the signs:

✕  Snoring, even quietly

✕  Mouth open while they sleep

✕  Bad breath in the morning

✕  Cavities, even though they brush

✕  Tossing and turning all night

✕  Tired, cranky or unfocused during the day

If you see even one of these, their sleep is already working against them.

4. There is a window, and it closes

A child sleeps 9 to 11 hours a night. That is a lot of hours for a face to be shaped the wrong way.

By around age 12, 60% of the facial structure is locked in. After that, the window starts to close for good.

What is easy to guide at 5 is very hard to change at 15.

5. Mouth tape, sprays and braces don't fix the cause

Mouth tape, nasal sprays, the humidifier. Every one of them is trying to stop a child breathing through their mouth. Not one of them asks why they have to.

Braces can cost $3,000 to $7,000, and they buy a straight smile. Not the face your child was supposed to have.

Their mouth is not the problem. Their mouth is how they find air when something is closing their airway every night.

6. The Rovae pillow is built for a child's neck, not an adult's

Rovae is low, it is firm, and it is shaped in three zones around a child's neck instead of an adult's.

Their head has nowhere to sink, so it never rolls back. Their throat stays open. Their mouth stays shut. And their tongue goes back where it belongs, against the roof of the mouth, building their face forward every night.

It comes in three sizes: 2 to 3 years, 3 to 8 years and 8 to 18 years. The cover is soft lyocell, and the mesh sides let air through so they stay cool.
