AirwayCentric® is a new school of thought in health-care, prevention, wellness, and public health. It looks at the airway along with breathing and sleep. Airway Sleep Disorders (ASD) impact brain development and neurobehavioral/neurocognitive disorders in children and adults. Airway and breathing patterns are fundamental in the development of the face: the nasomaxillary complex, mandible, and cervical spine.
Sleep bruxism (SB) and temporomandibular disorders (TMD) are also associated with sleep-disordered breathing (SDB). AirwayCentric® has important implications for pediatric dentistry, orthodontics, general and restorative dentistry. In this groundbreaking two-day course, you will learn through discussion and live patient observation as well as hands-on training.
The objective is to give you the confidence to incorporate airway and sleep management into your existing practice or to transition into a sleep practice. The doctor and team will be able to return to their office on Monday and offer HST and oral device therapy. Possible obstacles will be discussed as well as the solutions to overcome them.
