    Aug 26 2026

    Dr Shereen Lim is a Perth-based dentist and among the first in Australia to complete a postgraduate qualification in Dental Sleep Medicine.

    She is the author of Breathe, Sleep, Thrive: Discover How Airway Health Can Unlock Your Child’s Potential, a book that has reached families and professionals worldwide. Dr Lim is passionate about promoting integrative care and raising awareness of children’s airway health as the foundation for thriving health and vitality.

    SHOWNOTES:

    😴 Why is snoring a red flag in children?

    😴 Could mouth breathing quietly affect facial development?

    😴 How might poor nasal breathing impact sleep quality?

    😴 Could ADHD symptoms sometimes overlap with breathing problems?
