Mouth breathing, medically known as chronic oral ventilation, is long-term breathing through the mouth. It often is caused by an obstruction to breathing through the nose, the innate breathing organ in the human body.[3][4][5] However, by the early 20th century, the term "mouth-breather" had developed a pejorative slang meaning connoting a stupid person.
