About Amie
I'm Amie Hartmann, a certified orofacial myofunctional practitioner (AOMT-C) based in South Orange County. My work is rooted in the belief that breathing, sleeping, and eating well are foundational to a child's health and development.
With a background in dental care and specialized training in myofunctional therapy, I work alongside your child's dental, orthodontic, tongue-tie, and lactation providers to address root causes rather than symptoms.
My practice is cash-pay and built around your family. Every plan is individualized, every session is unhurried, and your child's progress is tracked carefully from evaluation through discharge.
