Dave Henrichsen, RDH

Dave Henrichsen is an oral myofunctional therapist in the Seattle area who focuses on healthy outcomes with patients with mouth breathing, tongue thrust, sleep apnea, tongue tie, TMJ pain and other myofunctional concerns.

After many years in the dental field he has found profound negative impacts of tongue tie, low tongue posture, mouth breathing and dysfunctional swallow patterns. The evidence of lifetimes of dysfunction has driven him to search for ways to help patients achieve normal function for a lifetime of health.

He has a strong desire to provide quality care, education, and therapy to all of his patients, and he wants to help people understand the incredible benefits of the therapy he provides.
