LASER TONGUE TIE

& LIP TIE RELEASE

A tongue tie can make breastfeeding painful or even impossible. We always recommend your first step be to work with a lactation consultant, but always feel free to email or call with questions!

FUNCTIONAL

TONGUE TIE RELEASE

Older kids and adults often need a more in-depth release procedure where the focus is on releasing tight fascia. A functional release requires that the patient also be working with a myofunctional therapist and a bodyworker for best results.

INFANT FEEDING THERAPY

Find the root cause of feeding challenges by taking baby's mouth "to the gym". Strength, coordination, and function are the keys to easy, symptom-free feeding.

Smart Mouth offers this service with Natalie, SLP. 

LACTATION

COUNSELING

Lactation counseling provides clinical management and support to breastfeeding and bottle feeding families.

Smart Mouth offers this service with Alura, IBCLC.

BODYWORK/

MASSAGE THERAPY

A neuroscience-based, light-touch therapy that engages the nervous system conversation between body and brain and helps restore appropriate sensory and motor function.

ALF Functional Therapy

If your child, as young as age 3, already has tooth crowding, underbite, overbite, or any jaw growth issues, we can start addressing it now. There is no reason to wait until your child has adult teeth to start correcting malocclusions.

Dr. Tara utilizes ALF treatment which requires also doing myofunctional therapy and osteopathic bodywork for restoring optimal structure and function. This protocol uses our bodies' inherent ability to heal and is a more natural way of getting growth patterns back on track.

OROFACIAL 

MYOFUNCTIONAL THERAPY

Dysfunction of your orofacial muscles (tongue, lips, cheeks) is the most common reason for speech and feeding disorders and crooked and crowded teeth.

Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy treats the root cause for long term stability.

If you feel that you or your child may benefit from any of these services, please schedule a consultation.
