Dr. Tieu is an experienced ENT doctor who is also knowledgeable on the importance of skeletal expansion, jaw surgery & myofunctional therapy for breathing & health. She often recommends patients with a narrow palate & nasal aperture to seek out expansion before or in place of turbinectomy & other nasal surgeries (AKA she agrees with making the room bigger before removing furniture). She also has a lot to share on the surgeries & treatments she performs or recommends when there are structural & tissue abnormalities in the nose. In addition, she discusses how to go about cutting infant & adult tongue ties, and the importance of breastfeeding for a child’s development, and how an uncut tongue tie can severely compromise a newborn’s ability to breastfeed.
