Most people come to us thinking about their teeth. What they discover is that we are looking at something much bigger than that. ๐ฟ
One of the things we routinely screen for here is tongue tie, in both adults and children. A restricted tongue tie is something that often goes undetected for years, but its effects can show up in ways that feel completely unrelated to the mouth. Disrupted sleep, mouth breathing, TMJ discomfort, headaches, and neck and shoulder tension are all things we see connected to this underlying factor more often than most people would expect.
In a biological approach, screening for these things early gives us a much clearer picture of what is actually contributing to your oral and systemic health. It means we are never just looking at the symptom in front of us. We are always asking what else might be connected, and what the mouth is telling us about the whole body. ๐ฆท
