Kids

Children's Airway and Early Orthodontic Care

The entire program is virtual, guided by our experienced clinical team, starting with a convenient free assessment done from home.

Did you know that 90% of jaw growth is completed by 11 years old?

That's why starting your child's treatment early is so important. The younger they are started, the quicker and easier it is.

Our free virtual check-up evaluates your child's breathing, smile, and jaw development to spot early issues before they grow. Just snap 6 quick photos of your child's face and bite with your phone, no clinic visits required. A licensed airway dentist will review your photos and send you a personalised evaluation.

What Parents Notice

Signs Worth Paying Attention To

Many children breathe and sleep in ways that quietly affect their development. These are some of the things parents notice, and the things our assessment asks about.

Does your child's smile look like one of these?

These are some of the patterns parents spot first. If one looks familiar, the free photo assessment is the easiest way to have it looked at properly.

An In-Person Exam

Once you are qualified for treatment, one in-person examination is required in our Sydney-based clinic (Bondi Junction), for which we'll help you book an appointment. The exam is at no cost; a $50 refundable booking deposit secures your visit, and it is refunded once you attend the exam. You can reschedule up to 3 times at no cost; cancelling within 48 hours of the appointment, or missing it, forfeits the deposit.

A staged, soft-silicone oral appliance worn each night to support healthy jaw and airway development.

Myofunctional Therapy

Guided exercises (and, on the Core + Myo plan, live sessions) to retrain breathing, swallowing and tongue posture.

Nasal Hygiene & Daily Habits

Simple daily routines that support nasal breathing, as a friendly checklist your child can follow.

Remote Clinician Monitoring

Photo submissions and periodic review by Dr. Phillip Stein, with a care coordinator you can message any time.
