About Me

Hello! My name is Tracey Coulter and I am a Registered Dental Hygienist with over 20 years experience in the dental field, and I now specialize in Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy- this is an exercise training program for the muscles around the face, mouth, lip and tongue. 

 

After many years of clinical practice, a colleague recommended that I look into the field of Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy. She promised me that it would ignite new passion into my career and it would be something that I could apply to my everyday practice as a Registered Dental Hygienist. I was a little skeptical at first, but considering she was a very respected clinician, I took her suggestion, and completed the education I needed to get started on this very exciting journey.

​

Myofunctional Therapy presents an exhilarating domain within healthcare, capable of profoundly transforming lives. Its impact commences with infants, addressing feeding and sleeping challenges, extends to children by addressing behavioral, eating, and sleeping issues, and extends further to adults, aiding with airway, sleeping, and sleep apnea challenges. Through myofunctional therapy, individuals can enhance their daily functionality and task performance, ultimately enabling proper breathing, sleeping, and swallowing. Imagine enduring a lifetime of inadequate restorative sleep, perceiving daily fatigue as normalcy, attributing symptoms to ADHD, only to realize the root cause lies in the absence of proper sleep. These issues often get misdiagnosed as other disorders, yet they originate from myofunctional challenges.  If you're grappling with any of these concerns, I'm here, eager to embark on a journey towards resolution and enhancing your quality of life.

​

I'm thrilled to contribute to the expansion of this dynamic healthcare field, fostering collaboration with fellow healthcare providers. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to connect with you!
