Teledontics and Early Treatment of Pediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea

WEBINAR OVERVIEW

On this webinar we will introduce you to the emerging field of Teledontics, a non-surgical therapy for the management and treatment of early growth and development issues that an alarming number of children suffer from today.

Teledontics aims to bridge the gap between the disciplines of medicine and clinical dentistry. It transforms the conventional restrictive orthodontic approaches such as extraction of the teeth, use of headgear and functional appliances, harmful to the upper airway, into more precise and preventive ones that promotes proper pharyngorofacial (POF) and upper airway growth.
