Dr. Marianna Evans "Skeletal Therapies for Patients with Upper Airway Disorders: The Role of the Orthodontist"
Orthodontists play a critical role in screening, diagnosing and treating jaw deficiencies in patients with sleep-disordered breathing. In this presentations we will review the latest innovations in surgical and non-surgical skeletal treatment modalities (MARPE, MMA, 3D printed expanders for younger children, protraction devices and mandibular advancement devices) for adults and pediatric patients with maxillary and mandibular deficiencies as it may relate to OSA and other upper airway breathing disorders.
Course Objectives:
- Review the literature on the role of crania-facial deficiencies in SDB and OSA patients.
- Review latest advances in 3D printed technologies to allow skeletal treatment in children with SDB younger than 6.
- Review latest innovations in non-surgical expansion for adults utilizing implant-assisted anchorage and 3D-printed/3D-guided technology.
- Review literature and cases with MMA surgery for OSA and SDB indications.
