Can Braces Be Avoided? YES! Here's How w/ Amanda Lapean | Chin Up Myofunctional Therapy

Millions of American children undergo orthodontic treatment every year, and many families invest $5,000 to $7,000 or more on braces. In this episode, Wisconsin-based myofunctional therapist Amanda Lapean joins us to discuss the growing shift from simply straightening teeth to supporting healthy oral function—and why, for some children, early intervention may help reduce the need for braces.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS:

Why the need for braces is on the rise
Causes for crowded teeth
What to do now to minimize the need for braces later
Why so many people need braces a second (or third) time
Why thumb sucking & nuks can increase the risk of needing braces
Hope for those with sleep apnea
