Can a child’s breathing patterns be the hidden cause behind bedwetting? Join us on the Beauty of Breathing podcast as we welcome Dr. Pia Gandhi, a board-certified pediatric dentist specializing in pediatric airway and oral dysfunction. Dr. Gandhi unpacks the complex relationship between disrupted sleep, poor oxygenation, and hormone regulation necessary for bladder control in children. Learn to recognize early signs of mouth breathing, such as chapped lips and restless sleep, and understand the critical importance of early intervention to prevent primary and secondary bedwetting.
Discover the pivotal role of tongue positioning and tongue ties in the development of infants’ jaws and airways. Dr. Gandhi highlights the dangers of low-sitting tongue posture and the benefits of early interventions like treating tongue ties during infancy. We discuss practical tips for promoting healthy oral habits, such as avoiding pacifiers and soft purees. Parents will find valuable guidance on finding the right specialists, including airway dentists, myofunctional therapists, and IBCLCs, to ensure their children receive the best care.
In this episode, we also cover a holistic approach to treating bedwetting and related issues. Integrate therapies like occupational therapy, physical therapy, chiropractic care, and oral therapy to address underlying causes. We delve into the necessity of pediatric dental sleep apnea screening and the importance of recognizing early signs of sleep disturbances. Dr. Gandhi also demystifies tongue ties and offers insights into effective treatments and proper orthodontic appliances. Don’t miss this enlightening discussion as we connect the dots between breathing, sleep, and overall health in children.
