Optimizing Sleep and Breathing Hygiene in Earliest Childhood: Healthspan Implications - Kevin Boyd

(AHS21)

Deciduous Malocclusion (DM), defined by poorly developing jaws and misaligned teeth in preschool-age children (under the age of six years old), is a highly prevalent public health problem within industrialized societies. DM will seldom, if ever, self-correct and will usually persist and worsen into later adolescence and adulthood if left untreated; also, DM is frequently associated with sleep and respiratory problems. This presentation will develop an argument that orthodontic/dentofacial orthopedic expansion of poorly developing jaws in young children, can often coincide with optimization of sleep-related respiratory health in pediatric patients which can not only improve the QOL of affected children, but also might likely increase their life-spans, slow down rate of aging and accordingly increase their health-spans in their senior years.
