Breathe Better, Sleep Better, Live Better with Smile Wellness
At Smile Wellness in Hoboken, NJ, we understand that airway health is foundational to overall wellness. From infants to adults, a healthy airway impacts breathing, sleep, and even oral and facial development. As a Breathe Institute Affiliate, we specialize in advanced airway evaluations and treatments, combining cutting-edge technology with holistic care to help you and your family thrive.
What is Airway Health?
Airway health refers to the ability to breathe efficiently and effectively, especially during sleep. Issues with airway function can lead to a variety of concerns, including:
Sleep-disordered breathing and snoring.
Pediatric sleep apnea and behavioral challenges.
Chronic fatigue and poor concentration.
Difficulty feeding, swallowing, or speaking in infants and toddlers.
Long-term impacts on jaw and facial development.
Our comprehensive approach addresses the root cause of these issues, promoting long-term health and wellness.

Our Airway Services
Comprehensive Airway Evaluations
We take a thorough and integrative approach to airway health, assessing:
Medical and dental history.
Breathing patterns, sleep habits, and posture.
Jaw alignment and craniofacial structure.
Tongue and lip function to identify ties or restrictions.
Home Sleep Testing in Hoboken
We utilize FDA-approved SleepImage technology to conduct sleep assessments from the comfort of your home. These advanced tests provide valuable insights into your or your child’s sleep quality and potential airway issues.
The SleepImage test is a simple, FDA-cleared solution for diagnosing sleep apnea. With just one contact point on your finger, it allows you to sleep comfortably in your own bed without disruption, while providing results comparable to a sleep lab’s polysomnography (PSG) test.
Advanced 3D Imaging with CBCT
Our CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) imaging technology captures precise, detailed scans with minimal radiation exposure. These images are used to evaluate airway structures, detect obstructions, and guide personalized treatment plans.
CO2 Laser Tongue and Lip Tie Releases
Tongue and lip ties can significantly impact airway function, especially in infants and children. Using a CO2 laser, we provide precise, minimally invasive frenectomies to:
Improve breathing and feeding in infants.
Address speech and swallowing issues in toddlers and children.
Enhance posture, sleep, and airway function in adults.
Early Orthodontics to Support Airway Health
Orthodontic issues can often be linked to airway function. Our early orthodontic treatments aim to:
Guide proper jaw and facial growth.
Create space for healthy tooth eruption.
Promote a clear, open airway for optimal breathing.
