How Airway Influences Facial Growth and Development
CONTINUING EDUCATION REGISTRATION PAGE
WEBINAR DATE: February 7th, 2023 8:15PM-10:15PM EST
(2 Hours, 0.20 ASHA CEUs)
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
Patient adaptation and how we breathe affects facial growth and development. Soft tissue such as the tongue, lips, cheeks, tonsils and adenoids influence jaw and dento-alveolar growth. Certain habits and airway-related issues can contribute to adverse skeletal changes.
In this lecture, we will discuss how soft tissue and breathing patterns influence skeletal growth. We will examine similar malocclusions in children and adults, and discuss how the treatment plans differ, depending on the age and skeletal maturation of the patient. For adolescents, our treatment plans will focus on growth modification. For adults, we will explore both surgical and non-surgical options for comprehensive treatment.
PRESENTER: Dr. Rebecca Bockow
