About Your Myofunctional Therapists
Hi, I’m Jessica!
Founder & Lead Orofacial Myofunctional Therapist
I am a Registered Dental Hygienist and Orofacial Myofunctional Therapist with a deep passion for education, collaboration, and whole-health care. My journey in the dental field began in 2011 through the Dental Assisting program, followed by the Dental Hygiene program at Fanshawe College. Since 2014, I have proudly worked as a Registered Dental Hygienist in my hometown of Hanover, Ontario.
Education has always been at the heart of my work. I’m a lifelong learner — often found taking new courses, diving into research, or creating thoughtful resources to better support my patients. In September 2020, I took a pivotal step forward by advancing my education in Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy, a decision that profoundly shaped both my clinical focus and my purpose.
As a dental hygienist, I have always loved empowering patients through education to improve their oral health and overall well-being. Myofunctional therapy expanded that passion even further, allowing me to address the foundational patterns of breathing, oral function, sleep, and development. During my studies, I began to recognize my own myofunctional challenges and experienced firsthand the impact of addressing root causes rather than symptoms. This experience continues to inform and inspire my work today.
The knowledge I’ve gained through years of dental hygiene practice, combined with advanced training in orofacial myofunctional therapy, allows me to take a thorough, thoughtful approach to assessment and care. I consider the whole person, their health history, habits, environment, and goals to connect the dots and create meaningful, individualized treatment plans.
Myofunctional therapy is most effective when delivered collaboratively. As the founder of Grey Bruce OMT, I am deeply committed to building a team-based, multidisciplinary approach to care. I work closely with and mentor our associates, while continually collaborating with dentists, physicians, orthodontists, bodyworkers, and other healthcare providers to ensure our patients receive comprehensive, well-supported care.
I am incredibly passionate about the field of Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy and feel honoured to support individuals and families on their journey toward improved function, health, and long-term wellness.
