If your child mouth breathes, snores, sleeps with their mouth open, or youâve been told their tonsils or adenoids are enlarged, this course was made for you. This is an over 1-hour parent lecture designed to help you better understand what may be going on, what questions to ask, and how to feel more confident about your childâs next steps.
Youâll learn:
why tonsils and adenoids matter
why they get enlarged and what may keep the cycle going
airway red flags to watch for
what may help before surgery (homeopath/naturopath, expansion, saline/flonase)
when surgery may need to be considered
why myofunctional therapy or oral appliances may not work well if the airway is still blocked
how to make more informed decisions for your child
Along with the lecture, youâll get:
a course document with links to help you find an airway dentist, myo therapist, and/or homeopath/naturopath (virtual and in-person options)
resources to help you find the right myofunctional therapist
access to supporting studies
questions to ask your ENT, airway dentist, and myofunctional therapist so you feel more confident choosing the right provider for your child
Think of this like a college-style lecture for parents who are tired of being told to âwait and see," or "let's surgically remove the tissues." Iâve also consulted with other airway dentists, myofunctional therapists, and ENTs, and they agree this is information parents need to hear when navigating enlarged tonsils/adenoids, mouth breathing, and snoring.
