Episode Description
What if some of the challenges affecting a child’s feeding, sleep, breathing, or development deserve a closer look at their oral and airway function? And how can parents feel more confident advocating for their children when something doesn’t seem right?
In this episode of Maintaining You: Health is Wealth, I’ll be joined by Dr. James Thomas, pediatric dentist, founder of health, and author of Why Babies Suck. Drawing on his work with infants and children, Dr. Thomas will share why early feeding concerns can be important to investigate and how oral function and breathing wellness may relate to a child’s overall wellbeing.
We’ll explore how parents can recognize concerns, communicate effectively with healthcare professionals, and seek appropriate evaluations without feeling dismissed. We’ll also discuss the importance of patient-centered care, early support, and looking beyond symptoms to understand a child’s needs.
This conversation will encourage parents to ask questions, trust their observations, and work with qualified professionals to support their children’s health and development.
