HealthyStart® with Dr. Amanda Hartman: Early Orthodontic & Sleep Solutions for Kids

At Forest Family Dentistry's Burnet office, Dr. Amanda Hartman specializes in pediatric dental care and is certified in the HealthyStart® system- a revolutionary, non-invasive treatment that helps children breathe better, sleep more soundly, and develop healthier smiles.

‍

If your child snores, mouth breathes, or shows signs of early orthodontic issues, HealthyStart® may be the ideal solution.

What Is HealthyStart®?

HealthyStart® is an advanced system that uses a series of custom-designed oral appliances for children and teens. These soft, comfortable devices are worn overnight or for a few hours during the day to:

• Encourage nasal breathing
• Promote natural jaw and facial development
• Guide teeth into proper alignment- no braces required
• Support healthy airway development
• Improves sleep quality and behavior

By addressing the root causes of oral and airway issues early on, HealthyStart® helps prevent the need for more invasive treatments later.

‍

Early Signs Your Child May Need HealthyStart®

Dr. Hartman often hears concerns like:

"My child snores at night," or "They're always tired even after sleeping." These can be signs of airway obstruction, poor jaw development, or mouth breathing, which can affect:

• Sleep quality
• Behavior and focus
• Speed development
• Facial growth and alignment

During your child's evaluation, Dr. Hartman will assess jaw structure, breathing patterns, and dental development to determine if HealthyStart® is the right fit.

• Pain-free and non-invasive: No drilling, no metal braces
