  • Chronic Allergies
  • Aggressive Behavior
  • Mouth Breathing
  • Swollen Adenoids and Tonsils
  • Daytime Drowsiness
  • Crooked Teeth
  • Restless Sleep

How HealthyStart ™ Can Help Your Child

If your child is one of the 9 out of 10 children who are suffering from these SDB-related issues, they could be a good candidate for HealthyStart ™.

The HealthyStart ™ System is a soft oral appliance that promotes proper growth and development of the jaw and airway. When worn consistently and under the direction of our Surrey dentists, your child’s airflow can be optimized in a way that facilitates proper nasal breathing. Moreover, the oral appliance can also straighten your child’s teeth without the need for braces.

The HealthyStart ™ System oral appliance is made to be worn at night (unless prescribed differently by one of our doctors). It is fabricated out of BPA, silicone, and latex-free material. Furthermore, this special appliance is FDA-cleared and ISO-certified. It has been deemed a Health Canada Class II Medical-Grade Device.

How To Get Started With HealthyStart ™

Children’s mouths are able to adjust more easily the younger they are, which means HealthyStart ™ is most effective when prescribed as an early intervention tool.

We are proud to offer HealthyStart ™. With a simple consultation, our doctors can assess your child’s jaw growth and determine if this system is right for them.
