Interceptive Orthodontics
with Invisalign

  • Guides jaw growth early, helping create the space needed for proper tooth alignment and balanced facial development.

  • Improves airway function by addressing narrow arches, retrusive jaws, or oral habits that can contribute to mouth breathing and sleep-disordered breathing/sleep apnea

  • Corrects harmful habits (thumb sucking, tongue thrusting, low-tongue posture) that affect both dental alignment and airway health.

  • Reduces the severity of future orthodontic problems, often minimizing the need for extractions or extensive treatment later.

  • Supports overall health and development by promoting proper breathing, better sleep quality, and improved oral function during critical growth years.

Tongue and Lip Tie
Release

  • Infants and young children should be evaluated for potential lip and tongue ties

  • Tongues and lips that are tied down too tightly can cause a series of breastfeeding, airway and jaw problems. 

  • Treating these issues early encourages:

    • healthy nasal breathing

    • improved airway function

    • proper jaw development.

    • less colic and easier breastfeeding 

    • improvement in speech

    • correct swallowing that if left untreated can lead to GI issues
