Healthy Smiles Start with Healthy Breathing
At Strong Ties Oral Health, we believe a healthy smile starts with well-developed jaws and proper function, contributing to overall health and wellness. Led by Dr. Britney Green, DDS, our practice focuses on addressing jaw development and function for patients of all ages, from infants to adults, with an airway-focused approach.
For children, we offer treatments for sleep-disordered breathing and support proper jaw development to promote better sleep and breathing. For teens and adults, we address underdeveloped jaws, jaw misalignment, and tongue ties to improve function and overall oral health with some of the most advanced techniques for palatal expansion. Whether you're seeking care for your child or yourself, our team is here to provide expert guidance and personalized care.
At Strong Ties, we understand that no two patients are the same. That’s why we provide personalized care plans tailored to meet your unique needs. Our goal is to strengthen the ties between oral health and overall well-being—because when you breathe better, sleep better, and feel better, life gets better.
