What Sets Us Apart From Traditional Orthodontics

What Sets Us Apart from Traditional Orthodontics?

At The Airway Center, we are acutely aware of how underdeveloped arches and small mouths impact our patients' well-being. While we place a high value on aesthetics, we never compromise on health. Our minimally invasive, effective solutions address crowding by creating space, resulting in a healthy, beautiful, and functional smile that endures long-term.

Many expansion devices only focus on creating width in the palate, but they miss a crucial aspect of overall health and functional improvements. Our system stands out because:

  • Open Palate Design: Our smaller, uniquely designed appliances feature an open palate, providing better tongue space which is essential for optimal airway health.

  • Early Treatment: We have the capability to treat patients as young as 2 years old, which allows for early intervention and more effective results.

The Importance of Arch Development:

Our approach emphasizes forward development for several key reasons:

  • Arch development: It develops the arches, creating optimal space for the tongue.

  • Can Prevent Invasive Procedures: Adequate space is created, reducing the need for IPR (Interproximal Reduction) and extractions and surgery.

  • Facial Symmetry: Promotes a strong jawline and facial symmetry, enhancing both aesthetics and functionality.

Our comprehensive approach ensures that our patients achieve not just a beautiful smile, but a healthier, more functional foundation that enhances their overall well-being.
