In this insightful episode of Vitality Made Simple, Dr. Debbie Ozment, DDS, speaks with Tiffany Ludwicki, a dental hygienist, certified myofunctional therapist and health coach, to explore the powerful connection between breathing, sleep, and resilience. The conversation focuses on how oral muscle function, airway health, and emotional well-being are deeply interconnected—and how addressing these root causes can lead to a fuller, healthier life.

Tiffany explains how snoring, mouth breathing, and sleep-disordered breathing often go overlooked and how these issues affect physical health, mood, relationships, and even cognitive function. She also shares why myofunctional therapy—a practice that strengthens the facial and oral muscles—can be a transformative solution for both children and adults.

Listeners will learn how dental hygienists play a crucial role in early detection, the impact of airway issues on nitric oxide production, and why breathing and sleep are even more vital than food and water. Tiffany also introduces simple lip and facial exercises and explains how online programs are helping more people access this essential therapy.

Whether you struggle with snoring, chronic fatigue, or stress, or you're simply looking for holistic ways to optimize your health, this episode offers eye-opening insights and practical tools for long-term wellness.
