Tailored Orthodontic Solutions
Our treatments are designed with airway improvement in mind, essential for addressing sleep apnea and enhancing overall health. By identifying and treating airway obstructions early, especially in children, we lay the groundwork for healthier development and a lifetime of better breathing.
Advanced Diagnostic Approach
Utilizing state-of-the-art i-CAT™ 3D imaging, we gain precise insights into the structural aspects of the mouth, neck, and throat that may impact breathing. This comprehensive evaluation guides our customized treatment plans, aiming to resolve the root causes of sleep-related disorders.
