FAQS
DO YOU TAKE INSURANCE?
Tinymouth is a fee for service practice and insurance is not accepted at this time. A superbill can be provided upon request but does not guarantee reimbursement.
DO YOU TREAT SPEECH DISORDERS?
Clear speech is based on normal structure and function of the mouth. While speech is not directly assessed or treated, the goal is to improve underlying sensory oral motor dysfunction that may be impacting both your child's feeding and speech.
DO YOU PROVIDE MYOFUNCTIONAL THERAPY?
Traditional Myofunctional Therapy targets older children and adults and requires them to sit and carry out specific oral facial exercises which is typically not appropriate for toddlers. My training in Myofunctional therapy combined with other training and experience working with infants and toddlers provides me with a unique skill set that allows me to infuse Myofunctional Therapy principles into feeding therapy sessions while also making it fun and functional. If you have concerns with open mouth posture, tongue thrust, tongue tie or you have been referred by a pediatric dentist for Myofunctional Therapy and your child is 5 or under, then this might be a great fit for your child. If you have more specific questions then please reach out by email or text.
