 In this podcast, Dr. Ben Miralgia, a general dentist with over 31 years of experience, discusses the evolution of orthodontics and the importance of early intervention in children's dental health. He shares his journey from traditional restorative dentistry to discovering expansive orthodontics, which focuses on jaw development rather than just aligning teeth. The conversation highlights the detrimental effects of early soft foods on jaw growth and the resulting prevalence of malocclusion in children.Dr. Becker emphasizes the need for early treatment to promote proper jaw size and function, which can prevent issues like mouth breathing and enlarged tonsils and adenoids. He argues that many children do not require tonsillectomies if proper orthodontic techniques and myofunctional therapy are employed. The discussion underscores the significance of addressing these issues early to improve overall health outcomes for children. This episode is crucial as it advocates for a shift in dental practices to prioritize jaw growth and function, ultimately benefiting children's long-term health.This is the ASAP Pathway Podcast, Airway, Sleep, and Pediatric Pathway, where sleep and airway health take center stage, one breath at a time.

Dr. Becker discusses how the literature points to resident viruses as the culprit as well...however...expansion techniques are showing shrinkage post expansion and more answers may come in the future with further research. What does the Dr Miralgia suggest about the effectiveness of upper expanders in orthodontic treatment?The speaker argues that upper expanders alone are often ineffective without addressing nasal breathing and tongue space, as they do not provide sufficient skeletal changes or improvements in symptoms.This is the ASAP Pathway Podcast, Airway, Sleep, and Pediatric Pathway, where sleep and airway health take center stage, one breath at a time.
