Airway Ortho Academy

Why Airway Health Matters
for Your Dental Practice:
Focusing on Children

Healthy airways are crucial for children’s development. Airway Ortho Academy Mentorship, led by Dr. Paulo Soares, empowers dentists to integrate craniofacial growth and healthy airway principles, improving children’s lives.

The Critical Impact of Pediatric
Sleep-Disordered Breathing (SDB):

SDB, though often underdiagnosed (Kim et al., J Prosthodont. 2024), significantly impacts children’s development. It’s linked to ADHD-like symptoms, including hyperactivity, inattention, and learning difficulties (Pediatrics. 2007). SDB also affects craniofacial growth, often leading to mouth breathing, long, narrow faces, recessed jaws, and crowded teeth (Prog Orthod. 2017). Furthermore, there is a strong association linking SDB to craniofacial pain and TMJ disorders. Adequate sleep is essential for healthy growth and development.

How Focusing on Pediatric
Airway Health Benefits Children:

By addressing airway issues, you can help prevent developmental problems and craniofacial abnormalities. Early detection of SDB signs like mouth breathing, snoring, and malocclusions is key. Understanding pediatric airway principles allows for interdisciplinary treatment planning and collaboration with pediatricians, ENTs, myofunctional therapists, and other allied healthcare providers.

Dr. Paulo Soares’ mentorship goes beyond techniques, providing practical strategies to help your team implement myofunctional orthodontics treatment systems that help children thrive.
