Episode 215:  Airway-Focused Dentistry and Myofunctional Therapy with Dr. Annie Babb, DDS

In this week’s episode, Hallie chats with Dr. Annie, who is passionate about airway-focused dentistry – an approach that places an emphasis on improving a patient’s airway and breathing. She shares how her own experience with breathing issues led her to discover the importance of airway-focused dentistry which allowed her to become a better practitioner. 

Dr. Annie also talks about how she and her colleagues at Braces for All Ages use myofunctional therapy and a holistic, collaborative approach to care for patients whether they need myo, a frenectomy and/or airway expansion. She shares how they work closely with other providers in their community to help patients get the best results for their current and future health.
