The Importance of Airway

Airway has always been a vital factor for growth and development. It has become more important as Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) has been steadily increasing in diagnosis among patients in all areas of society. A deficient airway also has negative repercussions in children if not addressed early which can lead to delayed or underdeveloped growth. A proper consult for crooked teeth involves more than just straightening teeth, but not disturbing the natural growth pattern of a child during their adolescent years. Dr. Keri Do has treated numerous cases avoiding this scenario and is available for a consult to discuss what she can do for you at Manoa Dental.
