Did you know that there’s an orthodontic treatment that can help with breathing issues? While orthodontics is generally thought of as purely aesthetic, it can sometimes address major health concerns. Airway orthodontics focuses on the relationship between oxygen intake and orthodontic health. It examines how adjusting the facial structure, mouth, jaws, and teeth can improve your breathing and optimally benefit your overall health.
Did you know that it’s possible to breathe in a way that harms your health? Mild breathing issues often go unnoticed, but obstructed breathing forces your body to compensate for low oxygen levels. If your body regularly struggles for proper oxygen levels, numerous long-lasting health problems can result, including increased risk for diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease. Children can also experience a lower IQ, ADD, and ADHD, plus delayed language skills and social development.
If you or your child demonstrates any of the following symptoms, we recommend scheduling an evaluation with Dr. DeLurgio:
During your consultation, Dr. DeLurgio will identify any issues that can be helped with orthodontic treatment and discuss her recommendations with you. Airway Orthodontic treatment is most effective in young children before their facial structure fully develops, but it can also help adults.
