Our Services & Treatments

Optimal airway performance through unique medical and dental modalities.

Overview

Comprehensive Airway Care

At Breathing and Functional Dentistry, we strive for optimal airway performance with unique medical and dental modalities. Together with our team of professionals, we address sleep and breathing disorders, facial and TMJ pain, and other symptoms of oxygen deprivation.

We believe that the body has the capacity to heal itself. Using an orthotic such as the Vivos DNA, mRNA, and mmRNA, Homeoblock, or the POD, the body naturally responds to the unique design and begins a path to wellness.

Dr. Sheahan has extensive training in CO2 laser assisted frenectomies for infants, children, and adults. Myofunctional therapy is always part of tongue-tie release surgery.

TMJ & Headaches

Jaw Pain & Headache Treatment

The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) connects your jaw to your skull. When this joint is stressed — often due to clenching, grinding, or an underdeveloped airway — it can cause persistent headaches, ear pain, facial soreness, and neck tension. Our team addresses the root airway causes behind TMJ dysfunction.
