Here is a very informative podcast with Kelly DeMiro, head of clinical support and training at MRC, the makers of Myobrace.
We are big fans of Myobrace for helping resolve bite and airway issues for young children, symptoms of which can show up as restless sleep, behavioral and cognitive issues, or recurrent sinus or ear infections.

Learn about what signs to watch for, why daytime exercises matter as much as nighttime wear, and when additional help is needed. Listen to real cases of children whose ADHD improved once their sleep issues were addressed, and kids who avoided surgery simply by learning to breathe properly.

The key insight: if you catch these issues early—ideally before age eight—you can guide natural, healthy development instead of forcing corrections later.

Acidic drinks like tea, coffee and soda - as well as many fruit drinks - can acidify your entire oral environment. And just like what’s going on in the ocean, that acidic environment can wear down enamel and biting surfaces, leading to tooth decay, gum disease, and lots of other serious health issues.

More acidic oceans could dissolve shark teeth right out of their mouths.

Chewing gum, especially for a beauty trend with no basis in fact, can damage teeth, gums, and jaw muscles. It’s not worth it.

From the article: “In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), oral health is deeply connected to digestion. The Stomach and Spleen are responsible for transforming food into vital energy and nutrients.

If these organs are weakened, stagnated, or overburdened, your body can’t extract the minerals needed to remineralize your teeth.”

This aspect of oral care often goes completely overlooked, but when you know better, you can do better.
