AIRWAY DENTISTRY
AIRWAY DENTISTRY
Proper airway clearance is essential for individuals of all ages, including infants, teenagers, and adults, to maintain optimal oral health and prevent chronic health conditions such as asthma and COPD. Developmental challenges can lead to various health complications, including allergies, and may result in distressing symptoms such as snoring, sleep apnea, teeth grinding, clenching, and difficulties with swallowing.
EQUIPMENT WE USE TO PERFORM AIRWAY DENTISTRY
While oral health complications resulting from airway obstruction are prevalent, it is essential to recognize that each patient presents unique characteristics that necessitate a customized approach to both diagnosis and treatment.
- Pharyngometer accomplishes these measurements using acoustic reflection technology, similar to a ships sonar.
