@katrinasabourin: Today I finally got some answers. For years I've known something didn't feel quite right with Theo. He's always been a mouth breather. I've spoken to doctors. I've spoken to dentists. I've spoken to ENT. But I kept feeling like I was being told to wait, watch and hope he'd grow out of it. Today I had an appointment with Dr Steffen Decker @theorthodonticspecialist and everything started to make sense. I walked out feeling relieved, but also frustrated that I knew so little about mouth breathing, how it can affect facial development, sleep, oral posture, behaviour, oxygen reduction and so much more This is a whole world I never knew existed. And honestly, I can't stop thinking about how many parents might be in exactly the same position I was. I'm not an expert. I'm just a mum sharing our journey and what we're learning along the way. If sharing this helps even one parent get answers sooner, it'll be worth it ❤️ Has anyone else been through this with their child? #mouthbreathing #sleepdisorderedbreathing #myofunctionaltherapy #tonguetie #adhd

My son also mouth breaths, he’s 7, adhd symptoms, large tonsils, bed wetting. I took him to a private dentist and she said he needs a referral to ENT. He has tongue tie. I’ll be following along 🫶🏻

my mom didn't even told me to to brush my tongue, I only brushed my teeth so my breath stank all through middle school. Everyone smelled it. I only found u were supposed to brush your tongue thanks to TikTok a year before I started high school. But because of that I'm still self conscious and I don't talk close to people anymore.
