Show Notes
In this episode of The Healthy Mouth Movement Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Shereen Lim—dentist, sleep medicine expert, myofunctional therapist, and author of Breathe, Sleep, Thrive—to dive deep into what we’re learning about oral ties, airway development, and why early intervention matters so much for our kids. This conversation builds on our previous discussions, but we go even further into the often-overlooked areas of lip ties, cheek (buccal) ties, and how tension patterns in the mouth can shape facial growth, breathing, sleep, and overall health. We talk honestly about what parents should be watching for, why “wait and see” can be risky, and how breathing, feeding, sleep, behavior, reflux, and even cavities are all connected. Dr. Lim also shares powerful clinical stories—from infants to adults—that highlight just how life-changing addressing oral dysfunction can be when we truly look at the whole body.
