When Airway Treatment Isn't Enough

Most conversations about airway treatment focus on creating more space: expanding the palate, improving tongue posture, or addressing structural concerns. Those approaches can make a tremendous difference. But what happens when they don't tell the whole story?In this episode, Dr. T sits down with naturopath Dr. Jill Ghormley to explore why some children remain chronically congested, why enlarged tonsils sometimes return, and why successful airway treatment often means looking beyond the teeth.Together, they discuss the role of the nasal microbiome, gut health, primitive reflexes, immune function, and other often-overlooked contributors to healthy breathing, explaining why uncovering the root cause sometimes takes a collaborative team rather than a single provider.Learn more about Dr. T, Green City Dental, and O2dontics: https://greencitydental.com/Learn more about Dr. Jill Gormley: https://drjghormley.com/
