Overview
Tongue thrust, incorrect resting-mouth posture, and stubborn thumb-sucking habits are the specialty here, alongside articulation speech errors that keep a child from being understood clearly. Founder Honor Franklin has run this Dallas practice since 1977 and is a licensed speech-language pathologist who also holds the rare IAOM certification in orofacial myofunctional therapy, one of just a handful in the state. Every patient works one-on-one with her rather than in a group setting, whether they're five years old or an adult.
A good fit for parents whose child has a tongue-thrust pattern, a lingering thumb or finger-sucking habit, or speech sound errors that haven't resolved with typical articulation therapy.
New patients get a full four-hour evaluation up front, complete with intraoral photos, measurements, and video, before a personalized plan is built; results also go to the family's dentist, orthodontist, or physician so everyone treating the child is on the same page.
Expect mailed updates on progress throughout treatment, and know that kids as young as five can start with a sucking-habit or articulation evaluation. Since the practice doesn't list accepted insurance plans or telehealth options online, it's worth calling ahead about cost and scheduling.
