What is Airway Orthodontics?

Airway orthodontics focuses on jaw growth, teeth alignment, and airway development to ensure a clear and unobstructed airway. Techniques like palate expansion, jaw alignment, and bite correction help create more space in the mouth and throat, reducing issues like:

Mouth breathing
Snoring and sleep apnea
Chronic fatigue and poor sleep quality
Orthodontic issues linked to airway restriction

Our personalized treatment plans ensure that every patient—whether child, teen, or adult—receives the best orthodontic care for optimal airway health.

Cutting-Edge Diagnostics

At PureHealthDental in Otsego, we use cutting-edge technology to assess and diagnose airway issues before recommending treatment:

CBCT (Cone Beam CT) Scans – 3D imaging for precise airway evaluation.
Digital X-Rays – Identify structural issues impacting breathing and jaw development.
Intraoral Cameras – High-resolution images to detect hidden dental and airway concerns.
Sleep Studies – Evaluate nighttime breathing patterns for sleep apnea diagnosis.
Jaw Vibration Analysis – Assess TMJ disorders linked to airway obstruction.

With these tools, we create customized orthodontic plans to improve breathing efficiency and overall oral health.

Orthodontic care isn’t just for kids—adults can benefit too! At PureHealthDental & Airway, we offer tailored solutions to correct misaligned teeth, improve bite function, and address airway issues. Our treatments include clear aligners, traditional braces, and lingual braces, each designed to meet your unique needs.

Straightening your teeth not only enhances your smile (a great perk!) but it also addresses underlying issues, leading to better chewing efficiency, reduced risk of tooth decay, and relief from jaw discomfort. By prioritizing your oral health, you unlock comprehensive benefits that go beyond aesthetics, ensuring long-term well-being and a healthier, happier you.

Alignment Made Simple

At PureHealth Dental, we provide a range of orthodontic appliances to help you achieve a perfectly aligned smile, including:

Braces

Traditional braces use metal brackets and wires to move teeth into place. They work by gradually applying pressure to your teeth, guiding them into the correct position  over time.

Brackets

Brackets are small metal or ceramic devices bonded to each tooth in traditional braces. We offer both metal and clear ceramic brackets to suit your aesthetic preferences.

Clear Aligners

Clear aligners are removable, transparent trays that gradually straighten your teeth. They are a discreet, comfortable option for both teens  and adults.
