With a holistic approach to enhancing the function of the lip seal, tongue, and nasal breathing, CODONIS Vestibular Myofunctional devices are set to transform the lives of millions.
Innovative Features for Better Orofacial Function
Vestibular Stimulation Points
As a myofunctional device designed to allow complete lip closure and optimal tongue positioning to promote nasal breathing, CODONIS devices gently stimulate the targeted acupressure points within the oral vestibule that are connected to the meridians of the body, to activate the orofacial muscles.
Integrated Bite Rails
The integrated bite rails are designed to keep the CODONIS device securely positioned during use. They act as a gentle deprogrammer — a physical pause button that helps interrupt stress‑driven clenching patterns and restore neuromuscular balance. This pause allows the masticatory system to release masticatory muscle hyperactivity, reset and rediscover a more harmonious state.
Ergonomically contoured vestibular wings
Shaped to follow the natural curvature of the oral vestibule, ensuring a stable, comfortable fit even during longer sessions without creating pressure points.
Custom‑fit trimming guides
Discreetly integrated cut‑lines allow the device to be easily tailored to different mouth sizes, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit for both adults and children without compromising function.

Our mission is to empower people to achieve optimal orofacial health through innovative, sustainable, and personalized therapy solutions — bridging science, function, and wellbeing in every design.
Elevating speech. Restoring functions. Enhancing smiles. Improving lives.
Airway
The foundation of function
A clear, open airway forms the basis of every essential function. When it becomes restricted, the body compensates.
Tongue
The postural organ of the face
The tongue is a muscular, sensory organ in the mouth essential for taste, chewing, swallowing, and speech.
Lip Seal
The stabilizer of function
A competent lip seal is essential for maintaining orofacial stability and efficient nasal breathing.

*Orofacial Functional Rehabilitation In Patients With:
Facial Paralysis, Cleft Lip/Palate, Down Syndrome Or Cerebral Palsy. *(Therapy Under Registered Practitioners’ Supervision)
How it works?
From unboxing to results — in 12 weeks
Six months of agony.
Four months to restored confidence.
After six months of standard therapy with no results, a patient with postoperative facial paralysis began using the CODONIS ORB. Within four months: stronger lip and cheek muscles, improved mouth closure, better coordination. After four months: near-normal muscle function, improved speech — and no surgery needed.
Before CODONIS
- Facial asymmetry
- Weak speech
- Mouth closure issues
After using CODONIS ORB
- Facial symmetry restored
- Improved articulation
- Normal mouth closure
Small steps.
Profound change
From seconds of effort to lasting functional harmony. Significant functional and aesthetic improvement in case of cerebral palsy
The CODONIS ORB protocol supported functional rehabilitation in a patient with cerebral palsy through targeted vestibular and orofacial muscle stimulation.
Beginning with only a few seconds of daily use and gradually increasing over time, the therapy led to improved muscle relaxation, coordination, facial expression, and new functional abilities—including eating with the mouth closed at age 52.
These changes marked an important neuromuscular milestone, enhancing the patient’s confidence and quality of life.
Before CODONIS
- Gaze unfocused
- Unable to close the mouth
- Difficulty in chewing and swallowing
After using CODONIS ORB
- Gaze became more focused
- Complete lip closure attained
- Chewing and swallowing attained
From Open Mouth to Radiant Confidence
Personalized CODONIS ONE therapy supported lip closure, nasal breathing, and improved tongue function in seven months.
A 6-year-old girl presented with persistent open-mouth posture, tongue thrust, an improper swallowing pattern, and an inability to achieve lip closure or maintain nasal breathing.
After seven months of gentle CODONIS ONE therapy, gradually increasing from 2 to 8 minutes of daily use, she achieved complete lip closure, nasal breathing, and correction of her tongue thrust and swallowing pattern—demonstrating how targeted vestibular stimulation can support functional balance and breathing efficiency with just a few minutes of daily wear.
Before CODONIS
- Open-mouth posture
- Tongue thrust
- Mouth breathing
After using CODONIS ONE
- Complete lip closure
- Nasal breathing
- Correct tongue function
From Tongue Overload to Functional Freedom.
Six months of gentle CODONIS therapy supported improved tongue posture, lip seal, swallowing, and orofacial function.
A 4-year-old child presented with macroglossia—an abnormally enlarged tongue that often protrudes beyond the dental arches and affects oral function, posture, and airway stability.
Symptoms included open-mouth posture, tongue protrusion, impaired swallowing, speech difficulties, airway obstruction, and snoring. After six months of CODONIS Vestibular Myofunctional Therapy, beginning with 30 seconds of wear and gradually increasing to five minutes daily, the child achieved a stable lip seal, improved tongue posture, coordinated swallowing, and visibly more balanced orofacial function.
Before CODONIS
- Open-mouth posture
- Tongue protrusion
- Impaired swallowing
After using CODONIS ORB
- Stable lip seal
- Improved tongue posture
- Coordinated swallowing

TESTIMONIALS
What others say about us
Using the CODONIS ORB has been an incredible experience. I met Dr. Susanne in Basel, and from the very start, I felt supported and guided. After that, I continued my therapy online, and I was amazed by how easy and effective the process was. The ORB is simple to use, and the teletherapy through the CODONIS APP made everything seamless. One of the biggest changes I’ve noticed is that my left facial muscles have been activated more, and I feel much more confident after my facial paresis. Seeing this progress has been truly uplifting. I’ve seen amazing results and couldn’t be happier with my journey. The entire experience, from my first session to now, has been so rewarding. I’m incredibly grateful to Dr. Susanne and the CODONIS team for their dedication and support!

I am delighted with the CODONIS devices! I use the CODONIS ORB with my facial nerve palsy patients and I’m thrilled with the progress! I particularly like using the CODONIS ONE with my young patients when it comes to closing the mouth and resting the tongue – the simple, systematic handling is uncomplicated. The cooperation with the company is very good, I can only praise them highly, keep up the good work!
