Airway & TMJ Dentistry
in Snohomish County

When your airway and bite aren’t functioning properly, it affects your whole life.

At O2dontics, we help people of all ages—from infants to adults—unlock better health by restoring proper function to the airway, bite, and skeletal growth patterns. By aligning the muscles and bones that support breathing and movement, we create a foundation for long-term comfort, stability, and vitality.

Whether you’re dealing with jaw pain, neck tension, headaches, disrupted sleep, or hoping to support your child’s healthy development, we take a comprehensive, whole-body approach to care.

Led by Dr. Rebecca Taylor, our team focuses on identifying and treating the root causes of dysfunction—not just the symptoms—to promote proper function and lasting results.

Because when the body functions as it should, you feel better, sleep better, and live better.

Did you know…

Sleep apnea is caused by a narrow or obstructed airway, resulting in snoring and chronic fatigue. Untreated sleep apnea increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, and even early death.

Children who are chronic mouth breathers are 3–4 times more likely to develop malocclusion.

People with untreated sleep apnea have 2–3× higher risk of high blood pressure, stroke, and heart disease.

While nearly 45% of adults are occasional snorers, roughly 25% snore on a nightly basis.

Snoring is often the first warning sign of airway obstruction.

Many kids diagnosed with behavioral issues may actually be sleep-deprived.
About 65–75% of people develop crowded or misaligned teeth.

Children who chronically mouth breathe are 3–4× more likely to develop crooked teeth and narrow jaws.

The O2 difference

At O2dontics, we believe the best outcomes happen when the body is treated as a whole. That’s why our care model brings together Dr. Rebecca Taylor, a TMJ expert and airway-centered biological dentist; Dr. Jason Scoppa, an SOT chiropractor with advanced training in TMJ and cranial work; Lily Corley, a licensed myofunctional therapist who also offers craniosacral therapy, therapeutic massage, and reflex integration; and Dr. Jill Ghormley, ND, a naturopathic physician.

Together, they form a truly integrative team that addresses the root causes of dysfunction—whether structural, muscular, or neurological—by aligning the airway, bite, nervous system, and developmental patterns. We’re proud to be one of the only clinics in the country offering this level of comprehensive, collaborative care under one roof.

It’s a whole-body approach designed to restore proper function, support long-term stability, and help patients of all ages breathe, grow, and thrive.

TMJ/TMD

Dealing with jaw pain, facial tension, neck stiffness, or clicking and popping when you open your mouth? TMJ dysfunction can cause a wide range of symptoms—including chronic headaches, earaches, pressure behind the eyes, difficulty chewing, dizziness, ringing in the ears (tinnitus), limited jaw movement, and even disrupted sleep. These issues are often overlooked or misdiagnosed, but they can seriously affect your quality of life. At O2dontics, we take an integrative, whole-body approach to TMJ care—combining advanced diagnostics and non-invasive therapies to address the root cause of dysfunction, restore proper function, and help you feel like yourself again.

Airway

Airway dysfunction is often the result of poor oral and facial development, low tongue posture, and muscle imbalance—leading to symptoms like snoring, mouth breathing, and sleep-disordered breathing. At O2dontics, we address the underlying structural and functional issues that disrupt healthy breathing. By restoring proper tongue position, muscle tone, and airway space, we help your body access the oxygen it needs to reduce inflammation, boost energy, improve focus, and support long-term health. With advanced diagnostics and a full range of in-house treatment options, we help you breathe better, feel better, and live better.

Dr. Rebecca Taylor

“My goal is to treat people, function, and cause, not just teeth or symptoms.”

While earning her DDS from the University of the Pacific Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry in San Francisco, Dr. Taylor quickly realized the connection between oral and systemic health, and the detrimental effects a suboptimal airway has on the body. Needless to say, this realization set her on a path of lifelong learning and innovation. Her extensive continuing education has provided her with the remarkable ability to truly transform lives with care tailored to an individual’s unique needs.

What our patients say

Don’t just take our word for it! Read reviews from patients we’ve helped, and see for yourself what’s possible at O2dontics.

I have recently finished the first stage on of my orthodontic treatment from Dr. Taylor. Not only is the pain in my jaw gone, the pain in my back is also gone and I can finally breathe through my nose.

I went to 2 different doctors to treat my TMJD before I was lucky enough to find Dr. Taylor. Because I always listened to her and wore my appliance, things went quickly and smoothly. Dr. Taylor is an expert in orthodontics and incredibly adaptable to new situations. She was able to modify my treatment plan gracefully as circumstances changed—something you really need when moving teeth around (because they are an important structural component in our bodies.

Jake S.

Dr. Taylor and her staff are great. She really knows how to treat TMJ and bite issues. I really appreciate her attention to detail and listening to my concerns and setting up a very clear plan.

Ellie H.

I’ve had a really great experience so far working with Dr. Taylor and her team on correcting my TMJ dysfunction and crossbite. I’ve turned out to be a more difficult case due to my joint hypermobility and I have been impressed with the care and consideration Dr. Taylor takes with regard to modifying my treatment plan when needed. Dr. Taylor and her team are extremely responsive, booking me in for appointments on short notice, calling to check in on me. Dr. Taylor understands how interconnected jaw issues can be with the rest of the body and due to her treatment over the past year my neck pain has reduced by ~70% and I no longer have clicking when turning my head.

Iris R.
