Healthy Smiles Start with Healthy Breathing
We all want the best for ourselves and our families, especially when it comes to health. At Strong Ties Oral Health, we understand that true wellness starts with the basics: how we breathe, how we sleep, and how our jaws develop and function. It's all connected, and it's something we're passionate about.
Your Journey to Better Health Starts Here
Led by Dr. Britney Green, DDS, our practice takes a unique, airway-focused approach to oral health for every age and stage of life.
For our littlest patients, from infants to children, we gently guide proper jaw development and address sleep-disordered breathing. Our goal is to help your child sleep better, breathe easier, and set them up for a lifetime of healthy growth.
For teens and adults, we understand the impact that underdeveloped jaws, misalignment, or even a tongue tie can have on daily life. We offer advanced techniques, including palatal expansion, to improve function and overall oral health, helping you feel your best.
At Strong Ties, you're not just another patient. We create personalized care plans because we know that your unique needs deserve a unique solution. Our mission is to strengthen the vital connections between your oral health and your overall well-being. After all, when you breathe better, sleep better, and simply feel better, life truly gets better.
