Singing has never been easier and more intuitive in my life, and I am immensely grateful. Besides this, I feel decreased tension from my shoulder to my legs, and I could breathe deeper more easily. 😀

Justin Newberry
I highly recommend Dr. Zaghi and the Breathe Institute — I am two weeks into the healing of a surgery for my deviated septum and tongue tie.
The day after the surgery I was immediately breathing better. As a dentist who studies the airway closely, Dr. Zaghi is regarded as one if the foremost experts on the importance of proper breathing and on the proper function of oral and facial muscles. More importantly, he is one of the kindest and most caring physicians I have encountered.
He’s got a gift and it shows! You are in good hands if you choose to see Dr. Zaghi and his amazing team of professionals.
Dr. Kyle Stanley
I am a dentist and have researched the best doctors to treat my own mouth and my family and this is why I came here. I have been coming to The Breathe Institute for the last two years. It is truly an A+ experience from the friendly and helpful front office team members to the myofunctional therapists to, of course, the man, Dr. Zaghi!
I highly respect him for his researched-backed clinical technique and way of thinking. He is very honest about what to expect and what can and can't be done. He always left us to make our own medical decisions and was there to guide us with his vast knowledge. I had my tongue tie completed here an it was so simple. The injections were painless and even the aftercare was easy. He is also great with kids! He did the most amazing job with my then 3.5 year old and his tongue tie release. It was his first dental injection and it was painless. My son didn't even know it happened.
I can't thank the Breathe Institute team enough for guiding me and my family on our path to a better life. I can't recommend them enough and have sent many friends and colleagues their way. Thank you!
Analee Nichols
My 11 month old son had a lip tie surgery done by a different dentist due to location and ease of access, but I called on the Breathe Institute for recommendations and advice since they specialize in this department. Dr. Pinto called me within 24 hours to follow up on my sons surgery and the pictures I sent.
She was so understanding of my “mama worry” for my child and helped answer my concerns and explained post care for my son. They have great videos online for post care for lip and tongue tie also. The Breathe Institute is putting out seriously great information to the public, and are very passionate about their patients. I am a registered Dental Hygienist and found them on Instagram.
I quickly saw how relevant and unique their information is. I also noticed how fast they responded to questions, which is always appreciated. EASILY FIVE STARS! The Breathe Institution is great and I will definitely heading to them in the future for health and oral needs for my family and I. Thank you again!
