VITAL BREATH

My name is Julie Leven. I have practiced dental hygiene for over 38 years. I was first introduced to myofunctional therapy in the late 1980's. During nearly four decades in the dental field, I witnessed countless patients struggle with TMD, gum disease, dry mouth, acid reflux, digestive issues, and orthodontic relapse. I also saw the toll of sleep apnea, allergies, tongue ties, and teeth grinding. Throughout my career, I observed how traditional dentistry focuses on reacting to these specific symptoms without offering a long-term preventative pathway. This realization inspired me to investigate the underlying causes of oral health issues to provide truly proactive care. The turning point came when my own granddaughter faced chronic infections and developmental jaw challenges at age two. I resolved to find better solutions for her future.I have completed a study specializing in Myofunctional thearpy.  Today, my mission is to apply my specialized expertise to improve the health and vitality of both my granddaughter and every patient I help through myofunctional support.
