In this episode of 'Airway Conversations,' Nicole and I dive deep into the nuances of airway health to explore the intricate connections between breathing, sleep, facial development, and overall wellness.

This episode features expert insights on topics ranging from early intervention in orthodontics, to the reasons why many orthodontists will only expand the upper jaw if the patient has a posterior crossbite, to the numerous issues with pediatric sleep studies and why children can have an AHI of 0 and yet still be suffering from an airway problem. Through an engaging discussion involving patient cases and practical advice, they emphasize the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration among healthcare providers.

Whether you're a parent seeking to understand your child's health, a healthcare provider, or simply curious about the science behind optimal breathing, this podcast serves as a comprehensive resource for all. Join us as we navigate the complex and often misunderstood landscape of airway health!
