FEATURED STORY, FROM THE MORE THAN TEETH PODCAST
A mother's instinct: uncovering a child's hidden airway crisis.
What began as concern over her young son's optic nerve swelling led Allison Allred to a diagnosis of idiopathic intracranial hypertension, and from there to sleep apnea and airway obstruction. Her persistence changed her son's health and his behavior. A story about trusting a parent's instinct, pushing for real answers, and root-cause care.
CASE STUDY 1
From pain to healing: a 22-year-old's journey with TMJ, breathing, and whole-body balance.
Years of chronic jaw pain, headaches, and tension began to ease through a comprehensive, whole-body approach. What we did: breathing optimization, inflammation reduction, balancing and decompressing the TM joints, and addressing the stress- and airway-related movement patterns tied to her symptoms. Her story shows why jaw pain is rarely just about the mouth.
CASE STUDY 2
Finally answers: Jessie's journey with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, chronic pain, and the right care team.
After years of unexplained pain and repeated misdiagnoses, Jessie found answers and a coordinated team that understood how her symptoms connected. What we did: an intercollaborative workup that recognized her Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), then care planned to fit her connective-tissue reality rather than work against it.
CASE STUDY 3
Off the surgery list: how treating sleep apnea changed one Crohn's patient's life.
A patient with severe Crohn's disease had run out of options and was facing bowel surgery. He had never been screened for a sleep disorder. What we did: added a sleep screening to his workup, which uncovered obstructive sleep apnea. Treating his sleep changed everything. His symptoms eased so significantly that he came off the surgical list, regaining a major part of his quality of life as his body healed through better sleep. A clear example of why sleep screening belongs in whole-body care.
