Airway Orthodontics represents a revolutionary approach in the field of orthodontics, focusing not just on straightening teeth but also on enhancing the patient’s overall health by improving airway function. This holistic perspective addresses various conditions that impact breathing, sleep, and quality of life. At Elite Orthodontics, under the guidance of Dr. Ammar Al-Mahdi, DDS MS ABO, we employ advanced technologies and comprehensive expertise to identify and treat issues related to compromised airways, ensuring our patients lead healthier, happier lives.
When is Airway Orthodontics Necessary?
Sleep Apnea and Snoring: Patients suffering from obstructive sleep apnea or chronic snoring can significantly benefit from airway orthodontics. These conditions often result from blockages in the airway, which can be alleviated through specialized orthodontic treatments, improving sleep quality and overall health.
Children with Developmental Concerns: Early intervention in children experiencing developmental issues, such as difficulty in breathing through the nose, mouth breathing, or those with narrow palates, can have profound benefits. Airway orthodontics can aid in the proper development of the jaw and airway, promoting healthier breathing patterns and contributing to overall well-being.
Adults with Chronic Health Issues: Adults experiencing chronic health issues linked to poor airway function, including hypertension, cardiovascular problems, and daytime fatigue, may find airway orthodontics to be an essential treatment option. By addressing the root cause related to airway obstruction, patients can see improvements in their conditions and a better quality of life.
