This Approach is used to treat Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome in Adults. This is a Static Treatment in which we determine the therapeutic bite position and create a custom oral appliance to maintain that position while sleeping to alleviate the risks and symptoms of a collapsible airway. Validated with Pharyngometry and state of the art 3D Cone Beam technology.
Candid Pro (Airway Centric Clear Aligner System)
CandidPro allows for orthodontic airway centric treatment. Beyond clear aligner technology, this system works with Board Certified Orthodontists in each state in the US along with Dr. Hu for the best airway treatment outcomes.
VIVOS Therapeutics/ DNA & MRNA/MMRNA Appliances- ADULTS
Orthotropics with Craniofacial Epigenetics and Pneumopedics. This is a dynamic airway treatment option, and especially relevant to those who are non-responders to oral appliance therapy and other modalities. This is non-invasive and uses signaling to PDL stem cells for craniofacial growth and expansion (concentric maxillary expansion). This treatment option is also paired with myofunctional therapy, Chirodontics, SOT/A-O Chiropractors and Physical Therapists.
Orthotropics for Children. Pediatric Airway treatment using signaling and growth guidance dynamic modality. In certain cases, Nutrition, myofunctional therapy, Chirodontics, Tongue tie release, and Speech therapy are also paired with this treatment option.
This is also and Orthotropic option. This treatment option allows for orthopedic growth, tapping into the growth centers of the mandibular ramus/ maxillary tuberosity (mesenchymal cells). This is also coupled with myofunctional therapy, physical therapy, and Chirodontics, as needed. These cases are done in phases, and patients have the option of finishing the cases with controlled arch orthodontics or Candid Pro.
This is an Orthotropic option for Pediatric ages. This system uses the same treatment philosophy as for adults (FORA/Fixed Growth Appliance) except that the growth appliance is removable. Myofunctional therapy has to be done in conjunction with this, and these cases are done in phases as well. Finishing these cases with Controlled Arch Orthodontics or Candid Pro is needed, and an inter-disciplinary approach is also utilized.
Other Removable growth guidance appliance treatment options-Pediatric
This option also uses removable growth guidance dynamic orthotropic appliances. This is also coupled with myofunctional therapy, nutrition, and exercise recommendations. Sometimes, after expansion, patients may also have orthodontic aligners to finish the cases esthetically.
Myofunctional Therapy
This is an Orthotropic option for Pediatric ages. This system uses the same treatment philosophy as for adults (FORA/Fixed Growth Appliance) except that the growth appliance is removable. Myofunctional therapy has to be done in conjunction with this, and these cases are done in phases as well. Finishing these cases with Controlled Arch Orthodontics or Candid Pro is needed, and an inter-disciplinary approach is also utilized.
