When Your Child Can't Focus, Sleep, or Eat Well

When Your Child Can't Focus, Sleep, or Eat Well

13200 Globe Dr suite 111Mount Pleasant, WI
Tuesday, May 12  •  6 PM - 7 PM
Overview

Free workshop for parents! Learn how airway, feeding & oral function may be affecting your child's sleep, focus & development.

Is your child snoring, mouth breathing, struggling to eat, or waking up exhausted — and no one can tell you why?

Could the way your child breathes, chews, or swallows actually be affecting their sleep, their focus, and their development?

What if the picky eating, the restless nights, the open mouth posture, and the behavior struggles are all connected — and nobody has ever explained why?

You're not imagining it. And you're not alone. But there's a piece of the puzzle most providers never mention — and it could change everything.

Join Elyse Scheeler, MS, CCC-SLP for a FREE live workshop on Orofacial Myofunctional Disorders (OMDs) — what they are, how they show up in kids, and what you can actually do about it.

This isn't a lecture full of medical jargon. This is a real conversation, designed for parents, that will help you finally connect the dots and know your next step.

This workshop is for you if your child...

  • Breathes through their mouth — at rest, during the day, or while sleeping
  • Snores, grinds their teeth, or sleeps restlessly
  • Has a history of or suspected tongue tie — or has already had a revision but you're still seeing struggles
  • Has dental concerns like crowding, an open bite, a high palate, or their dentist has mentioned something "off"
  • Struggles with feeding, textures, chewing, or is an extreme picky eater
  • Has low muscle tone around the mouth or jaw
  • Has speech sound errors that haven't fully resolved with traditional therapy
  • Has been evaluated and told everything looks fine — but something still doesn't feel right

Here's what we're covering:

  • What orofacial myofunctional disorders actually are — and why they're so commonly missed
  • Airway health & sleep — how oral function and airway are deeply connected, and what disrupted sleep is really costing your child
  • Mouth breathing & its effects — how breathing through the mouth quietly shapes your child's development, facial structure, focus, and behavior
  • Tongue tie & oral restrictions — what to look for beyond the basic latch check, why revisions sometimes don't resolve everything, and what comes next
  • Myofunctional therapy — what it is, who it helps, and why it's often the missing piece
  • Feeding challenges & picky eating — when it's a phase and when it points to something deeper in oral function
  • Dental red flags — what certain bite patterns, crowding, and palate shapes are telling you about how your child is functioning

You'll leave this workshop knowing:

✓ Whether your child shows signs of an orofacial myofunctional disorder ✓ Why so many kids are dismissed — and what to say to get better answers ✓ What myofunctional therapy is and whether it might be right for your child ✓ Where to start — without the overwhelm or the research spiral
