Hey Mama! Big truth time: Conventional orthodontics and dentistry have gotten it all wrong. And the cost? It's your health, and your child's future.
For years, I believed what I was told. I endured countless orthodontic treatments— extractions, braces, retainers, even double jaw surgery — all to "fix" my crowded teeth. But it didn't fix anything. It left me with nerve damage, chronic pain and a compromised airway. When I started seeing the same alarming signs in my own daughter — mouth breathing, a small jaw, crowded teeth — everything clicked. This wasn't just bad luck. And I had more power than I realised.
I dug deep. I researched. And what I discovered was shocking: our jaws are shrinking, our breathing is dysfunctional, our teeth are decaying, and our mouths are crowded. But braces and brushing aren't the answers. In fact, it's so much deeper than I ever imagined.
And if you learn this now, you could change your child's health for the rest of their lives.
My book, "The Mouth Myth," is here to rip back the curtain and reveal a powerful, urgent truth: straight teeth aren't enough. The dental and orthodontic systems have missed the fundamental factors that truly create healthy smiles and lifelong well-being. This isn't just about appearance; it's about your child's ability to breathe, sleep, focus and thrive.
This is what you need to understand right now.
