Poor airway health could be the root cause of these symptoms!
Dr. Greg Pyle offers effective treatment solutions to help you breathe better and feel better.

Adult Airway Treatment
End your headaches and fatigue for good!
If you have been using a CPAP machine for your breathing problems, you've only been treating the symptoms of your problem, not the cause.
Dr. Pyle gets to the root of the problem by correcting bite and muscle alignment issues that help to open up the airway and promote airway health.
Don't let your breathing problems continue to affect your quality of life negatively. Call us today and breathe easier tomorrow!
Children's Airway Treatment
Early treatment can head off health problems.
Dr. Pyle, your Muncie dentist, addresses underdeveloped airway or orthodontic issues in children with non-invasive growth guidance therapy or functional orthodontic treatment.
These natural solutions encourage healthy growth and proper function of teeth, jaws, and muscles. When your child can breathe properly, their body gets the oxygen it needs to develop and function properly.
We include an airway exam as a routine part of every patient's dental examination, including children. Call us today to get your child checked.
Myobrace®
The natural way to straighter teeth.
Myobrace® addresses the underlying causes of crooked teeth that prevent proper jaw development.
Improper breathing and swallowing habits are addressed and corrected, and this pre-orthodontic treatment ensures the proper development of jaws and teeth.
Myobrace® can prevent the need for costly and repetitive orthodontic treatment after the permanent teeth have come in.
‘‘Dr. Pyle is a great dentist; he is knowledgeable, compassionate, and always puts the patient first. I cannot recommend him enough. The office staff is absolutely lovely, and everyone tries to make you feel at home. I think they’re the best.

It involves re-educating the muscles of the face and mouth.
A series of simple, easy-to-do exercises promote proper breathing, chewing, and swallowing. These open up the airway and allow you to breathe fully.
We also work on eliminating poor habits such as thumb-sucking and grinding or clenching the teeth.
There are some common symptoms, identified in all age groups, that can indicate poor airway development.
A few to watch for include:
