Dr. Gunsaulis is dedicated to ensuring proper oral function and optimal oral health starting at birth.

Our practice works collaboratively with myofunctional practitioners, gastroenterologists, midwives, sleep physicians, lactation consultants, obstetricians, pediatricians, cranial sacral therapists, oral and maxillofacial surgeons, chiropractors, prosthodontists, speech, physical, and occupational therapists, naturopaths, psychiatrists, osteopaths, sleep coaches, neonatologists, ENTs, allergists, physiotherapists, dieticians, immunologists, pediatric surgeons, neuropsychologists, neurologists, behavioral psychologists, orthodontists and many more.

We work closely within our collaborative community to aid our infant, toddlers and older patients struggling to feed and sleep.  It's never too early to have your baby do simple exercises for their jaw muscles.  We will discuss the appropriate therapies, food, oral myofunctional therapy and or oral myofunctional appliances that may be necessary to help develop jaws and facial muscles optimally and as early as possible.

When should a parent schedule the first pediatric dentist visit?
