To all our valued patients,
As we continue to navigate through this period of uncertainty, we will work with various experts and provide updates and recommendations based on the most current situation. The health of our patients and staff is of utmost importance. It is with heavy hearts that we have decided to close our office for the next two weeks to help flatten the curve. Our staff will be calling to reschedule those who have been impacted. Please take care and stay healthy.

Chronic obligate mouth breathing, from impaired nasal respiration (enlarged tonsils and adenoids in Jack’s case), can cause progressively worse abnormal craniofacial development and malocclusion beginning at a very early age. Chronic mouth breathing interferes with proper maxillary and mandibular arch development by disrupting tongue, cheek and lip muscle forces. Chronic oral breathing causes a down and backward positioning of the mandible, a vertical long-faced growth pattern and multiple abnormal growth patterns in the face, jaws and dentition that are very interrelated. It may also affect lifestyle, being constantly exhausted from lack of sleep from impaired breathing, reduced ability to focus and possibly being diagnosed with ADHD due to the display of similar symptoms.

Early dental diagnosis and treatment of airway dysfunction and craniofacial malformation is essential. Orthodontic and orthopedic treatments that positively impact the airway and breathing can absolutely lead to a healthier and longer life!!
