Can I book a consultation if I live outside Australia?

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

Not right now. We’re in a little behind-the-scenes season focusing on digital resources and education. But don’t worry, there’s still plenty here to help. Our digital guides are designed to give you clarity and practical steps while we’re taking a break from 1:1 consults.

I’ve already had a consult before. Can I book a follow-up for my child?

Returning clients are welcome to send an email to info@thefaceplaceofm.com.au.

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.
