The mouth plays a role in how your child eats, sleeps, breathes, and grows.
When something feels off, it can show up in more ways than one: from restless sleep to picky eating to constant colds.
Many parents spend months searching for answers, only to find mixed messages and confusion.

About The Face Place
Most families we work with have already seen a Dentist or a GP and still feel unsure about what’s really going on. You’ve asked questions, tried to piece things together, and want guidance from someone with a holistic approach to health.
The Face Place was created to give parents that clarity: grounded in science, explained in plain language, and tailored to real family life.
Here, you’ll find care that connects the dots between your child’s mouth, body, and wellbeing.
