Mouth breathing, Sleep apnea, Snoring in children and adults
in Madrid.
At Breathe Airway Dentistry we understand that breathing poorly is never an isolated problem. We treat children, adolescents and adults with mouth breathing, sleep apnea, bruxism, snoring and facial growth disorders, analysing how each of these factors affects sleep quality, concentration, posture and overall quality of life.
What changes when you breathe well goes far beyond sleep.
Treatments for mouth breathing, sleep apnea, bruxism, snoring and guided facial growth.
Our paediatric orthodontics goes beyond straightening teeth — it’s about laying the groundwork for a lifetime of healthy breathing and restorative sleep.
- Strengthens your child’s immune system and supports healthy development.
- Reduces the likelihood of sleep apnea and snoring.
- Minimises daytime drowsiness and fatigue.
Chronic mouth breathing
the hidden enemy
of your child's development
Nothing describes what we do better than the words of those who have lived it.
Parents who came to us with doubts, difficult diagnoses and surgery already on the table.
This is what they have to tell us.
When Lucas's mother came to Breathe Clinics, her son was 4 years old, breathing through his mouth and had lost 50% of his hearing. Surgery had already been recommended.
In this testimonial, she tells us why she decided to look for an alternative and how that decision not only avoided the operation, but also restored the hearing Lucas was losing.
Verónica is a midwife — she knows the healthcare system from the inside, and yet she had no idea there was another way to treat her children's breathing problems.
In this testimonial, the mother of Dante and Félix gives a detailed account of how she gradually noticed subtle changes in both children’s development, how she tried to address them on her own, and why, after that long journey, finding Breathe Clinics in Madrid changed everything.
Nicolás's father came to Breathe Clinics with a 5-year-old boy who had been recommended for surgery.
In this testimonial, he tells us how he experienced the treatment process and what it means to him that his son achieved the same results without ever setting foot in an operating theatre.
When Marie came to Breathe Clinics, Pía was 10 years old, snoring every night and already carrying her brother's medical history: surgeries on his adenoids, tonsils and frenulum. With significantly enlarged tonsils and a narrow airway, Pía had begun developing anxiety and compulsive eating.
In this testimonial, Marie describes how treatment not only spared the family another surgery, but also resolved the psychological issues that no one had ever connected to the way her daughter was breathing.
When Lucas's father came to Breathe Clinics, his son was 4 years old, breathing through his mouth and had lost half of his hearing.
In this testimonial, he gives his account of the journey: how he experienced the diagnosis process, what the treatment involved, and how correcting the way Lucas breathed ultimately turned out to be the key to restoring his hearing as well.
Rubén came to Breathe Clinics with a history that others had been unwilling to take on: severe tooth decay, irregular dental growth, snoring, and difficulties chewing and swallowing.
His parents tell us that several clinics had turned them away due to the complexity of his case, until at Breathe they found a team willing to design a staged treatment plan that addressed each issue in a structured and progressive way.
One year after his first visit to Breathe Clinics, Nicolás's mother looks back on the journey. Her son arrived at the practice at just 4 years old, and since then has gone through a process that spans from myofunctional therapy to a fixed palatal expander.
In this testimonial, she walks us through each stage of the treatment and explains why, looking back, she feels the results have exceeded her expectations.
Many of the problems we see in the mouth or the bite don’t start there. Their origin lies in how we breathe, how the airway develops and how the face grows.
When these functions don’t evolve as they should, the body compensates — and those compensations end up affecting sleep, posture, behaviour and mental health.
That is why at Breathe we look beyond the teeth.

Signs that may indicate a breathing or airway problem.
- Breathing through the mouth, day or night.
- Frequent snoring or restless sleep.
- Bruxism: grinding or clenching the teeth.
- Unrefreshing sleep or difficulty falling asleep.
- Fatigue, irritability or poor concentration.
- Crowded teeth or lack of space in the dental arch.
- Altered bite or changes in facial development.
- Orofacial or neck pain, or jaw tension.
- Postural imbalances.
- Anxiety, emotional dysregulation or mood changes.
These symptoms rarely appear in isolation. They tend to be interconnected and share a common functional origin. Identifying them early allows for more informed intervention and avoids treatments that only address the consequences without resolving the cause. In both children and adults, many of these symptoms are taken for granted without anyone looking into why they are there in the first place.
At Breathe we work with children, adolescents and adults in Madrid from a whole-person perspective, integrating orthodontics, dental sleep medicine, myofunctional therapy, physiotherapy, speech therapy and psychology.
We know that breathing poorly is not just a mouth problem. It shows up in sleep, posture, attention, emotional balance and overall quality of life.
What the families who have been through Breathe have to say.
I brought my son Alejandro to see Dr. Genny and the experience couldn't have been better. From the very first moment, she showed a very warm and personal approach, which as parents makes all the difference.
Alejandro felt comfortable, calm and well cared for throughout the visit. The doctor conveys confidence, empathy and a real vocation, alongside impeccable professionalism. She has a special ability to connect with both children and parents, explaining everything clearly and calmly.
Without doubt, an outstanding professional to whom we are very grateful. Highly recommended!

Coming to the practice for our little one's first assessment was absolutely the right decision.
The entire team was excellent. The proposed treatment couldn't be better — allowing natural growth without intervention, respecting the body's own timing.
A pleasure.

A truly skilled professional. I am so pleased to see my son improving his tongue function and everything that comes with it.
Thank you, Rubén.
A fantastic professional who explains everything in detail, making sure you fully understand. Incredibly attentive with children — we would choose her again without hesitation.
Thorough case study and highly detailed diagnosis.
Accessibility 100%.
She focuses on long-term health and aesthetics — not a quick fix, not just straightening teeth, but developing facial structure and maximising airway potential. Short and long-term results combined.
If you are looking for the best for yourself and your family, look no further — with her and her team, you have found it.
I have been bringing my 7-year-old daughter to Dr. Genny for two years due to an open bite caused by atypical swallowing and low tongue tone. Thanks to her treatments, we have managed to expand her palate and improve her overall function.
Genny is an exceptional professional. She doesn't just evaluate the mouth — she also assesses the airways, posture and other key factors, offering a comprehensive approach that truly makes a difference. Her treatment goes beyond dentistry and covers the functional aspects essential to the patient's development.
I recommend her without hesitation — she is one of the best in her field. My daughter also enjoys every visit, as Genny is gentle, patient and has a wonderful way with children.
We love the way she works — with a broader view of your child's dental problems, incorporating breathing and postural work that you simply don't find anywhere else. She explains everything clearly and thoroughly so you always know what is happening.

Leaving with the confidence that you are in the hands of a true professional from start to finish is wonderful. I felt heard, the explanations were clear and straightforward, and most importantly, my daughter felt calm and at ease throughout the entire visit. I have no doubt we are in the best possible hands.
The whole team is exceptional. From the very first contact, Irina — an incredibly warm and empathetic person — guides you through the process with all the information you need, making sure you feel at ease every step of the way. I also want to mention Estefanía, the myofunctional therapist who treated my daughter, whose work delivered outstanding results.
My words for all of them are nothing but gratitude. Their expertise and teamwork make us aware of the importance of caring not just for oral health, but for the airway health of our children.
I would like to express my most sincere gratitude to Dr. Adriana Montoya Flores for the entire process and the excellent results achieved.
From the very first appointment, her manner has been warm, kind and deeply human — something that makes all the difference, especially when children are involved.
Her extensive experience and specialised airway focus are clearly evident, which gave me great confidence from the outset.
Every step of the treatment was explained clearly, always with a high level of professionalism and dedication. She is without doubt an orthodontist genuinely committed to the overall wellbeing of her patients.
I recommend Dr. Montoya with complete confidence and gratitude.
The doctor is a professional with a true vocation and genuine passion for what she does — and it shows in the way she treats her patients, in her explanations and in her patience. The consultation has been incredibly valuable for us. It has marked a clear before and after in our ability to understand what our daughter was going through.
One interdisciplinary team, one shared vision.
Our team works in a coordinated way, integrating different specialities: Orthodontics and craniofacial development.
