How Airway Orthodontics Works

1

Comprehensive Evaluation

We assess your airway, jaw position, facial structure, and breathing patterns using advanced diagnostic tools and imaging.

2

Custom Treatment Plan

We develop a personalized plan that may include expansion, growth guidance, or orthodontic appliances to optimize your airway.

3

Long-Term Health

Our treatment creates lasting improvements in breathing, sleep, and overall health—benefits that last a lifetime.

Treatment Approaches

Palatal Expansion

Gentle widening of the upper jaw creates more space for the tongue and improves nasal breathing. Most effective in growing children but can be done in adults too.

Myofunctional Therapy

Exercises to retrain the muscles of the face, mouth, and throat to promote proper breathing, swallowing, and tongue posture.

Mandibular Advancement

Moving the lower jaw forward can open the airway, particularly beneficial for patients with sleep apnea or a recessed lower jaw.

Orthodontic Appliances

Specialized appliances designed to guide jaw growth, maintain airway space, and support healthy breathing patterns.

Airway Care for Every Age
