Learning Objectives:
• Develop an understanding of the differential diagnosis for the root-causes of sleep-related breathing disorders, sleep bruxism, and cycle of oral dysfunction in pediatric and adult populations; and be able to screen for and identify the clinical signs of mouth breathing, tongue-tie, limited tongue-space, sleep-disordered breathing, and myofunctional disorders among patients in your practice. 
• Learn how the clinical definition of ankyloglossia has evolved over recent years and learn the step-by-step surgical protocol of tongue-tie surgery while recognizing the broader context of myofunctional (tongue-tone) and maxillofacial (tongue-space) issues.
• Learn to assess the impact of sleep-related breathing disorders on pediatric and adult populations through interpretation of sleep studies, CBCT diagnostic imaging, video recordings of sleep, and other clinical assessment tools and modalities. 
• Observe the protocol in action through live case studies, as well as hands-on participation with suture training, laser, and myofunctional assessments.
