Face Focused Orthodontics

Today our office celebrates Dr. Hang and Debbies last day at Face Focused Orthodontics. We would like to extend our sincerest gratitude to them for giving so much to the community and profession these last 51 years of clinical practice. They have had an enormous impact on so many lives because of their persistent pursuit of excellence for airway centered orthodontic healthcare

Old school orthodontists tried to put the human form into a box. Today's forward thinking orthodontics practiced at Face Focused Orthodontics promotes overall health and wellbeing through individual treatment plans designed to help patients reach their true genetic potential.

Congratulations to our friends and colleagues Dr Brian Hockel and Dr Darin Ward on being presented the Wiebrecht Award in Juneau at the AAGO. The Wiebrecht Award is presented to those who have performed exceptional and meritorious service in furthering the aims and purposes of the Academy of Airway and Gnathologic Orthopedics. We’ll deserved ! 👍😃🥇👏

Excited to share the program for the AAGO with oral surgeon Dr Reza Movahed in beautiful Juneau, Alaska! “Surgical and Non-Surgical Treatments for Airway, Pain and TMD Problems” If you weren’t able to join us you can purchase the video at www.AAGO.com. The scenery and awesome seafood you’ll have to go in person!

It was good to meet new colleagues that are part of The Airway Revolution Foundation as well as catch up with old friends like Dr Kevin Boyd at a recent meeting of the minds about how to change the way people think about airway/breathing/sleep.

Dr Bill Hang and wife Debbie are proud to be part of the advisory board of The Airway Revolution Foundation which is a not-for-profit organization that promotes airway health by creating projects that generate awareness and discussion.

Simply straightening teeth and ignoring oral posture may treat a symptom but it ignores the cause.

Dr Victor Avis, President of the TARF Board of Directors, introduces Dr Bill Hang to address the TARF Leadership Meeting in NYC. Dr Hang, a member of the advisory board, spoke about what the future of orthodontics could be to further people’s health.

Nothing in the human body happens in isolation. Airway focused orthodontics diagnoses and treats from a perspective of whole body connection.

We appreciate the confidence, Amanda!

The field of orthodontics is ever changing (and that's a good thing!).
50 years ago we were taught to only treat patients' crooked teeth AKA malocclusions. We now know that crooked teeth are always a symptom of a bigger problem.

It’s been a privilege treating your family! We love seeing their beautiful smiles. Thank you, Robert.

Five members of the Endeavour group joined in a photo at Dr. Bill Hang's Early Childhood Health-centered Orthodontics™ Mentorship kick-off in Dallas recently. Drs. Loria Nahatis, Susan Maples, and Carla Damon are part of the mentorship and Dr. Steve Carstenson stopped in to give encouragement! So appropriate since Steve was instrumental in the ADA adopting the mandate to screen for airway issues and Bill is teaching techniques to enhance children's airways!

Let's make "healthspan" and lifespan as equal as possible! Breathing and sleeping well are essential. We appreciate you, Mario!

Elias Kalantzis of OSA University stopped by my Early Childhood Health-centered Orthodontics™ Mentorship while we were in Dallas. Since Elias deals with adults who have OSA, we're trying to put him out of business by helping children breathe and sleep better!
