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.
Accepted Payment Methods
Cash
Check
Credit or Debit Card
Health Savings Account (HSA)
Payment Assistance
To further help make our services accessible, we also offer interest-free financing opportunities.
Available Services
Please see our service offerings below. Regardless of the option, the first step is booking a brief call with our therapist.
On that call, we will ensure the best service choice for your child and go over logistics, including service fees.
We'll then gather a bit more information about your child and get them scheduled.
Option #1:
In-person patient screening with consultation
You have some concerns – maybe you’ve noticed your child doesn’t sleep well, there’s a thumb sucking habit you don’t know how to break, a dentist just identified a possible tongue tie, your child’s teeth appear crowded and crooked, or perhaps their mouth is just constantly open… now what? For those parents who are experiencing treatment plan confusion and overwhelm, and just don’t know where to begin, we offer 1-hour in-person screening with consultation sessions as a good first step for helping to strategize care. These sessions are recommended for those seeking customized guidance with:
- Understanding what interventions exist and which ones may be most helpful for meeting their child’s specific needs,
- Obtaining recommendations for local providers,
- Determining an optimal sequencing of interventions
To arrange an in-person screening with consultation session, please contact us via the “Book a Call” button below. Please note – these sessions do not include a comprehensive patient assessment or customized therapy plan of care.
Option #2:
Comprehensive in-person patient assessment/treatment
This comprehensive care option begins with an initial one-on-one assessment. This 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, customized treatment specific to your child’s needs
Subsequent customized treatment plans typically consist of a series of 1-hour in-person sessions, on average scheduled every couple of weeks over the course of multiple months. Alternative treatment options are also available, depending upon individual needs.
All patient sessions are by appointment only. Primary patient care hours are between 10a-3p on Tuesday through Thursday – please note that the availability of after-school and weekend hours is not guaranteed. We currently have limited remaining availability for comprehensive assessments in 2026, 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 via the “Book a Call” button below.
Option #3:
Specialty modalities & supportive interventions only
We also offer customized sessions for patients who may benefit from specialty modality or supportive physical therapy interventions only – depending on individual needs, these may include laser or shockwave protocols, manual techniques, full-body exercises for breathing and posture, Nasal Release Technique, etc. – without a full course of OMT. These sessions are recommended for patients who:
- Are receiving OMT care elsewhere and want full-body support towards OMT goals,
- Are considering or have undergone orthodontic, dental, or ENT interventions,
- Are not yet ready for a full course of OMT treatment but would like to work on building a good foundation for function
To speak directly with a therapist to discuss specific concerns and available treatment modalities, and to schedule an initial screening with modality treatment appointment, please contact us via the “Book a Call” button below. Please note – these sessions do not include a comprehensive patient assessment.
Option #4:
Nervous system support sessions
These sessions utilize specialized modality protocols in combination with self-regulation techniques to help promote a calm nervous system, which is essential for the brain and body to effectively function. These sessions are beneficial for children who are:
- Preparing for their first dental appointment,
- Preparing for or recovering from a dental, orthodontic, or ENT procedure (e.g., tongue tie release, tonsillectomy/adenoidectomy, tooth extraction, etc.),
- Struggling with sleep, sensory processing, behavioral concerns, etc.
