Frequently Asked Questions

Are you currently taking new bookings for dental health and oral function support?

Yes. I’m currently accepting new bookings for children’s oral health consultations (ages 0–17) and oral function consultations (ages 1–17). All appointments are offered online, making it easy for families across Australia to access support for dental health, oral hygiene, tooth decay concerns, oral habits, breathing patterns and early oral development.

If you’re unsure which consultation is right for your child, feel free to complete a contact form at the bottom of this page or book a free 10 minute discovery call.

What ages do you work with?

The Face Place supports children from birth to 17 years, with a strong focus on early intervention during the toddler and preschool years.
Each service and resource is tailored to your child’s stage of development, helping you feel confident at every step.

Do I need a referral to book a consultation?

No referral is needed. You can book a telehealth consultation directly through The Face Place.
Our online appointments are designed to give parents practical, professional guidance without the wait.

Where do you offer your services?

The Face Place provides online oral health consultations to families Australia-wide through secure telehealth appointments (this is called Teledentistry).

Whether you’re in a city, regional area, or remote community, you can access personalised guidance from an Oral Health Therapist from the comfort of your own home.

Can I book a consultation if I live outside Australia?

One-on-one consultations are available to families living in Australia only.
However, you’re welcome to explore our digital guides and resources, which are relevant to families anywhere in the world who want to understand their child’s dental health and oral function.

My child has seen you before. Can I book a follow-up appointment?

Yes. If your child has had a consultation with me in the past, you’re welcome to book a Return Consultation. These sessions are designed for follow-up support, progress checks, updated strategies, new concerns or questions, and guidance on next steps. Return Consultations are available online for families across Australia.

If you’re unsure whether your child needs a full consultation or a shorter review, feel free to get in touch and I can help you decide.

Are your digital resources suitable for families outside Australia?

Yes. Our digital resources are designed to support parents globally.
They focus on the principles of oral development, dental hygiene, breathing and functional health, which apply universally — no matter where you live.

How can I tell if my child is mouth breathing?

If your child snores, sleeps with their mouth open, or often wakes up tired, mouth breathing might be part of the picture.
Our free guide, Nasal Breathing for Kids, explains simple steps to support healthy breathing habits.

What does “oral function” actually mean?

Oral function is how the muscles in the mouth and face move for things like breathing, chewing, swallowing, and speaking.
If something’s out of balance, it can affect dental growth, feeding, and even sleep.

Can you give me dental or oral function advice via email?

We wish it were that easy! While we can’t provide personalised clinical advice via email, we can point you to the best next step or resource for your child.

Can you recommend local providers?

Thanks for trusting me to help here. While I’m not able to offer personalised recommendations for local providers, I’ve created a free guide to support you.

The Airway Focused Health Professionals guide explains the types of practitioners who work with oral function, breathing, and dental development, and how to find the right fit for your child’s needs.
