Further uncover pre-existing damage to the TMJ (joints in the jaw) and cervical spine, get measurements on the jaw size, and see if there are issues with the nasal and sinus passages.

Step 3: Undo bad habits, Gain good habits!

MyoRevive Oromyofunctional Training

The narrow jaws and airways are a result of improper tongue motor function. In order to comprehensively tackle the issue of malocclusion, training the tongue, cheek, breathing muscles to help restore proper function to the muscles is absolutely core. The muscular function must compliment the structure. Otherwise our bodies will continue to have ‘dysfunction’.

Age range is from 4yo+. Infants please speak with our Revive Airway Dentist for options.

Step 3: Removing Obstacles

Laser Release of Restricted Oral Ties

We all have some form of a frenum. But if the frenum is restricting full range of motion and contributing to symptoms, releasing them may be needed. In a developing child, theses ties prevent the tongue and cheeks from promoting proper dental arch development, and therefore the airway chamber development. High tech laser release which free the restriction in the tongue lip and possibly cheeks can help achieve fuller range of motion.

For infant laser tongue or lip tie release, Revive Sleep Studio has special no-injection technique for numbing for the procedure.

Step 4: Re-align and Fine-tune

Airway Aligners with Red Light Therapy

Once the foundation has been established and sleep quality shows improved on sleep quality test, the teeth are aligned with Clear Airway Aligners. To continue to encourage cellular activity, high frequency vibration therapy or red light therapy is used together with clear aligners. This allows to densify the bone which just formed and the teeth to move into place more accurately. It can also shorten the duration of treatment. We use various clear aligner systems based on the needs of each patient (CANDID, Spark, Invisalign).

**Although the brands may sound similar to a typical clear aligner treatment, the Airway centered clear aligner treatment must be done with a trained Airway dentist for safety and to receive the benefit of protecting the airway.
