Great intro course to help anyone understand the fundamentals of hot airway disorders influence restorative dentistry. Excellent place to start in building a foundation in understanding airway in the dental Practice. Only downside is it briefly covers the Seattle protocol but that is covered in depth with the workshop to follow the seminar

Airway Prosthodontics delves into the study of irregular breathing patterns, both during wakefulness and sleep, and their effects on the development and well-being of the stomatognathic system. This specialized field extends beyond the scope of sleep appliances and their influence solely during sleep. Gain insight into identifying disrupted breathing during sleep and the anatomical obstructions affecting respiration. This course aims to provide you with a comprehensive understanding and methodical strategy for managing and alleviating airway concerns and their related dental complications within a restorative dental practice.

What you will learn at this seminar:

To understand how breathing-related disruption of sleep is not limited to apnea.
How upper airway flow limitation creates an environment for poor sleep consolidation and chronic stress.
To identify the three categories of airway patients and the screening questionnaires and monitoring devices employed for each group.
The causal and correlational relationships between the top 10 dental problems and dysfunctional breathing.
The importance of breathing disordered sleep on the systemic, neurocognitive, and craniofacial development of our pediatric patients.
To determine why the ideal time for intervention is when children are 4 years old, and how dentistry needs to adapt to a Prevent-Control-Resolve strategy.
To understand the importance of nasal breathing, the damaging sequela of mouth breathing, and the strategies to promote proper function.
A systematic approach to controlling and resolving sleep-induced airway issues – This six-step protocol walks dentists through an evaluation and management strategy that ranges from simple options to manage airway issues to progressively more complex solutions.
How to expand their interdisciplinary dental team to include sleep physicians, otolaryngologists, myofunctional therapists, and more.

This course has opened my eyes! There are SO many conditions I had not known to look for that I am now seeing in most of my patients. I also have some knowledge about a progressive series of steps for treatment, leading to resolution of the patients’ conditions.
This new knowledge and awareness will allow me to provide much better care for my patients.
