Oralase 101: The Light Therapy You Need to Know About

Are you concerned about your child's breathing, facial development, or oral function? Wondering why "tongue ties" have become such a hot topic in pediatric health? Join Green City Dental and O2dontics founder Dr. Rebecca Taylor and veteran myofunctional therapist Lily Corley for an enlightening discussion about the very big impact proper tongue function can have on overall health and development.

In this episode, “Dr. T” and Lily explore how the tongue acts as a natural architect of facial development and a key player in healthy breathing, swallowing, and even posture. You’ll learn why fascial restrictions, often forming as early as in the womb, can interfere with proper facial growth and development, and also about Oralase, a gentle light therapy that's showing remarkable results in patients of all ages but particularly in children. We’ll dive deep into functional dentistry and look at issues like why traditional approaches to tongue ties sometimes fall short - and how addressing underlying functional patterns is crucial for long-term health.

Whether you're a parent navigating early intervention options, someone dealing with TMJ or sleep issues, or a healthcare provider interested in integrative approaches, this episode of Your Mouth Matters offers valuable insights into the fascinating connection between facial restrictions, nervous system function, and overall wellness. You’ll hear about clinical experiences, the science behind Oralase, and how this innovative approach fits into a holistic treatment plan for optimal mouth/body health.
