✨Many patients are surprised to learn that dental appliances can help manage Obstructive Sleep Apnea and snoring by supporting the airway during sleep.

Oral appliances are designed to gently position the jaw to help maintain an open airway, which may improve breathing and support more restful sleep.

Quality sleep is essential for healing, brain function, and overall health. If snoring, jaw pain, headaches, or poor sleep are affecting your nights, we may be able to help.

Our goal is to help you breathe easier and sleep better.

The week’s not over yet! Last but certainly not least… meet Olivia! ✨

She’s passionate about helping patients finally find relief from TMJ pain and sleep issues, and as a bilingual assistant, she’s able to connect with and support even more of our patients. Her experience has been such a blessing to our team, and she’s constantly sharing her knowledge and teaching even the seasoned members of our office something new every day.

Fun facts: she’s a mom of 4 boys and a proud grandma to 12 grandchildren ❤️, enjoys going to the gym, and unwinding with Netflix.

We’re so lucky to have you, Olivia! 🦷✨

The 2026 white paper update from the American Association of Orthodontists, published in the American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, is an important and necessary document.

It rightly reinforces that:

Sleep disordered breathing is a medical diagnosis.
Orthodontics is not stand alone OSA treatment.
Imaging alone does not diagnose airway disease.
Prophylactic claims are not evidence based.

That clarity matters.

But as an ENT working closely with airway and growth, I think the bigger conversation is still evolving.

AHI is not the whole story.
Children with low AHI can still have significant neurocognitive impact.
Women can have flow limitation and autonomic disturbance without classic OSA patterns.
Nasal resistance influences craniofacial growth.
Growth influences airway stability.

The airway is not static. It develops. It adapts. It remodels.

Orthodontists see patients during the most critical years of craniofacial development. That is not a trivial window. It is biologically significant.

The absence of long term prevention trials does not mean craniofacial development is irrelevant to lifelong breathing health. It means we have not yet done the right longitudinal studies.

We should avoid overclaiming.

But we should also avoid underthinking.

The science is moving.
Our models need to move with it.
