Your Path to Wellness
Why We Start With the Airway
Most people don’t give much thought to how they breathe—unless there's a disorder involved. But breathing is more than automatic—it's foundational to your health. The way you breathe affects how well your body delivers oxygen to your brain, heart, muscles, and every organ.
If you’re breathing through your mouth, taking shallow breaths, or over-breathing, you may not be getting the oxygen your body truly needs. This can impact sleep, energy, focus, growth, and even your smile. In fact, an estimated 30–40% of people breathe through their mouths without realizing it—and that small shift can have big effects over time.
We take an Airway Centered APproach
At Epic Dentistry, we look at the root causes of dental concerns—not just the symptoms. Many patients come in seeking help for crooked teeth, jaw pain, gummy smiles, or worn enamel. Often, these issues are signs of an underlying airway or breathing dysfunction.
Better Breathing
By supporting proper nasal breathing and airway development first, we create a foundation for long-term dental health and overall wellness. Once the airway is addressed—through myofunctional therapy, nasal hygiene, or other gentle interventions—Dr. Caulfield may fine-tune your smile with conservative orthodontics, if needed.
The Result: A Smile That Lasts
When we correct the underlying issue instead of just masking it, your smile not only looks great—it
functions better and stands the test of time. That’s the Epic difference:
Whole-health dentistry that starts where health begins—with your breath.
