Kelly Bradshaw, RDH COM®
As an experienced dental hygienist, I came across a lot of children who were having sleep, breathing, and behavioral problems. Those same children shared a lot of the same dental and oral characteristics. Many of them had seen doctors who had no answers (other than medication) for their issues of bedwetting, allergies, ADHD, snoring, grinding, thumbsucking, mouthbreathing, etc. Many had been told they would “grow out of it.”
