1-Hour CE · For Hygienists & Dental Teams
Become the hygienist who catches what everyone else misses.
A focused 1-hour course on airway screening, the link to myofunctional dysfunction, and exactly when — and how — to refer. Built by a Registered Dental Hygienist and Certified Orofacial Myologist (COM) who has spent the last decade catching the cases everyone else sent home.
Instant access · lifetime updates · 14-day refund, no questions asked.
What's inside the hour
A practical workflow you can use at your next recare appointment.
The airway-aware exam
The exact extraoral, intraoral, and functional checks to add to your assessment — without adding 10 minutes to the appointment.
What you're actually seeing
The science (kept short) on why mouth breathing, tongue posture, and orofacial habits drive crowding, sleep issues, and TMJ symptoms.
Myofunctional therapy — what it is, what it isn't
Who benefits, who doesn't, what the timeline looks like, and what to say when a patient asks 'is this real?'
Building your referral map
How to identify an ENT, sleep physician, COM, and frenectomy provider in your area — and what each one actually does.
Scripts that don't sound alarmist
Word-for-word language for patients and parents that gets buy-in instead of defensiveness. Two scripts, both tested in clinic.
Documenting the finding
How to chart it so the dentist sees it, the patient owns it, and it doesn't disappear into the next hygiene appointment.
Three ways to take it
Take it yourself, or bring it to your whole team.

Host a Lunch & Learn
Get your whole team speaking the same airway language.
Most practices lose airway cases because the hygienist sees it, but the doctor and front desk don't share the vocabulary to support the conversation. A team session fixes that in one hour.
- Owners / Office Managers: practice differentiation + new referral pipelines
- Doctors: a shared language and clear handoff with hygiene
- Hygienists: the screening protocol they're allowed to actually run
- Front desk: how to talk about myo referrals with patients

Common questions.
Does this count for CE credit?
CE accreditation submission is in progress. All attendees receive a Certificate of Completion that documents the 1 hour of instruction, the date, the topics covered, and the instructor's credentials. Once formal CE accreditation is granted, every past attendee will receive an updated certificate with the credit hours.
Who is this for?
Primarily Registered Dental Hygienists, but the content is equally useful for dentists, orthodontists, dental assistants, and front-desk staff who handle referrals. Dental and hygiene students are welcome.
What's the difference between this and the full certification?
This 1-hour CE teaches you to recognize airway dysfunction and refer appropriately. The full Optimized Airway Education certification (separate program, $2,000) trains you to deliver myofunctional therapy yourself — assessment, treatment planning, exercise prescription, and case management.
What does the Lunch & Learn fee cover?
Everything — the live 1-hour session, downloadable protocol for every attendee, certificates, and (for in-person) catered lunch for your team. Travel is included within 90 minutes of Port Colborne, Ontario. Outside that radius, we'll quote travel separately.
Refund policy?
Online course: 14-day refund, no questions asked. Lunch & Learn: full refund up to 7 days before the scheduled date; 50% within 7 days; no refund within 48 hours, but we'll happily reschedule once.
