Description
The conversation introduces the editors of a medical textbook on airway orthodontics and discusses the origin of the book. The book aims to bring together healthcare professionals from various fields to collaborate on the treatment of airway obstructions in children. The chapters cover topics such as malocclusion, screening, facial biomarkers, nasal resistance, pediatric sleep surgery, myofunctional therapy, radiology, and more. The book is intended for healthcare professionals in dentistry, medicine, and allied healthcare fields. The editors hope the book will raise awareness, improve interdisciplinary collaboration, and lead to better outcomes for children with airway issues. The conversation highlights the importance of early treatment in orthodontics and the need to address underlying issues rather than just straightening teeth. It emphasizes the role of growth guidance and non-surgical interventions in improving airway and sleep apnea. The discussion also emphasizes the need for orthodontists to expand their knowledge beyond traditional training and consider the long-term health implications of their treatment. The book discussed in the conversation aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of these concepts and their application in pediatric and adult orthodontics.
