Payment & Session Details
A Note About Insurance
We have chosen to build a patient-centered practice that does not allow insurance companies to dictate the care we provide, enabling us to spend our time focused on providing the care our patients need. As such, Mouth Matters Therapy, LLC does not contract with or communicate with insurance companies. Payment will therefore be expected at the time of service.
However, we gladly make coded receipts available, which parents may submit at their own discretion to their insurance providers for potential out-of-network outpatient physical therapy reimbursement, contingent upon individual insurance plans and deductibles. We are unable to guarantee insurance coverage of, or payment for, our services. Our practice does not require patients to be referred by a dentist, orthodontist, or physician in order to obtain care.

To further help make our services accessible, we also offer interest-free financing opportunities.
Session Details
You can expect patient care at Mouth Matters Therapy to begin with a phone consultation to learn more about your child’s needs and answer your questions regarding therapy. When appropriate, we will then schedule an initial one-on-one comprehensive assessment. This 2-hour in-person time allows us to assess anatomy and function, screen for interdisciplinary needs, and get your child started on an individualized in-office and/or home program to begin addressing concerns.
Following the initial assessment process, the therapist will formulate and review with you a personalized plan including:
- Primary assessment findings;
- Education on symptom management and additional resources;
- Personalized initial home exercise program instructions;
- Referrals to other professionals and services, as appropriate;
- A recommended plan of care for continued treatment specific to your child’s needs, and related fee information.
Subsequent treatment plans for OMT typically consist of a series of sessions, generally 50 minutes in duration each, scheduled over the course of several months. Alternative treatment options are also available, depending upon individual needs.
We also offer customized sessions for patients who may benefit from specialty modality (OraLase, PerFacT, etc) or other supportive treatment (manual techniques, full-body PT activities, Nasal Release Technique, etc) interventions only, without a full course of OMT. This is recommended for patients who:
- may be receiving OMT care elsewhere,
- are considering or have undergone orthodontic or dental interventions, such as palatal expansion, braces, tongue/lip tie releases,
- are considering or have undergone ENT interventions such as tonsillectomy/adenoidectomy,
- have concerns about sleep, breathing, nervous system regulation, sensory processing, etc.
Patient sessions are by appointment only. Updated practice hours effective June 2026 are generally 10a-3p on Tuesday through Thursday – please note that the availability of after-school and weekend hours is not guaranteed. We are currently booking new assessment appointments into 2027, with a waitlist available. To speak directly with a therapist to discuss specific concerns and treatment needs, and to schedule an initial assessment appointment, please contact us. We look forward to speaking with you!
