Stop trying to understand your child's symptoms one at a time.

Maybe you're trying to figure out a tongue tie.

Or your child's sleep.

Or mouth breathing.

Or breastfeeding.

Or myofunctional therapy.

Or why you've been told something is "fine" when your gut tells you there's more to the story.

And the more you learn, the more you realize these things may not exist in separate boxes.

That's where it gets complicated.

One provider is looking at the tongue.

Another is looking at sleep.

Another is looking at feeding.

Another is looking at the teeth.

And you're left trying to figure out how all the pieces fit together.

That's exactly why Toothseekers exists.

Every month, parents come together with a trusted guest expert to ask questions, share experiences, and explore the connections between the different pieces of the mouth, airway, sleep, and whole-body picture.

Not with fear.

Not with one-size-fits-all answers.

And not with the expectation that one provider has to have all the answers.

Instead, we create space to ask better questions, understand different perspectives, and leave with a clearer sense of what might be worth exploring next.

This Month's Conversation

Guest Host: Esther Greenberg, COM, CBS

Esther Greenberg is the kind of practitioner I love bringing into the Toothseekers conversation because she has followed her own curiosity across disciplines.

She began as a dental hygienist and went on to pursue training in myofunctional therapy, became a Certified Sleep Consultant, and became a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist.

And to me, that journey is part of what makes her such an interesting guide for parents.

Because the deeper you go into these topics, the harder it becomes to look at them in isolation.

The questions start connecting.

How does oral function relate to sleep?

Where might a tongue tie fit into the picture?

Could something that shows up during breastfeeding matter later?

When does myofunctional therapy make sense?

What should parents actually be looking for?

These are the kinds of questions we'll explore together.

Topic: Myofunctional Therapy, Sleep, Tongue Ties, and more!

Date: Wednesday, October 14th

Time: 12PM EST (Eastern Standard Time: New York)

You're not just learning from the guest expert.

You're learning from the room.

Some parents will be brand new to these topics.

Some will have been researching for years.

Some will have already seen multiple providers.

Some will be wondering whether myofunctional therapy is even relevant to their child.

Others may already be deep into the world of tongue ties, sleep, or oral function and still have unanswered questions.

That's one of the things that makes Toothseekers different.

Together, we know more.

And sometimes the most valuable thing you hear isn't the answer to the question you came with.

It's the question another parent thought to ask.

Why attend live?

These conversations are never recorded.

Not as a marketing tactic.

Because parents deserve a safe place to ask vulnerable questions about their children without worrying that those conversations will live online forever.

That means the only way to be part of the discussion is to join us live.

Bring your questions.
Listen quietly.
Or simply come to hear what other families are asking.

Either way, you'll leave with more clarity than you arrived with.

The Toothseekers is a peer support community. Conversations are intended for education, connection, and shared experiences, not medical advice or diagnosis.

Because these are live community events with limited spots, each registration reserves a place in the conversation. To help us plan for every meetup and ensure those spots are available for families who want to attend, the $12 registration fee is non-refundable.

If you're unable to join, simply email julia@oriswellness.com at least 24 hours before the meetup, and we'll gladly transfer your registration to a future Toothseekers Parent Meetup.
