What We Treat

Complete airway care
for every age.

From your 3-year-old’s mouth breathing to your own snoring โ€” we have specialized treatment options designed for each stage of life.

Our Services

Treatments built around
how you breathe

Every service we offer is rooted in airway โ€” because that’s the foundation everything else is built on.

๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ
Airway Orthodontics
Certified diagnosis and comprehensive treatment of airway dysfunction. Using Vivos, Myobrace, and Dr. K’s own BioX protocol, we develop the jaws and open the airway โ€” at any age.

Core Specialty

๐Ÿ‘ถ
Early Intervention (Age 3+)
The earlier we start, the more we can guide natural jaw growth. We see patients as young as 3 โ€” years before traditional orthodontists would typically begin. Prevent problems before they compound.

Ages 3โ€“6

๐Ÿ˜
Braces & Clear Aligners
Traditional braces and clear aligner therapy โ€” including biomimetic Damon system โ€” combined with airway principles. We align teeth in a way that supports healthy breathing for life.

All Ages

๐Ÿ’ค
Sleep & Breathing Treatment
Addressing the structural causes of sleep-disordered breathing through orthodontic intervention โ€” snoring, sleep apnea, restless sleep. Often without surgery. Often without CPAP.

Teens & Adults

โœ‚๏ธ
Tongue Tie Evaluation
Evaluation and co-management of lingual frenulum restriction that impacts breathing, swallowing, speech, and jaw development. We coordinate with release providers for comprehensive care.

All Ages

๐Ÿ“ก
3D CBCT Airway Imaging
Cone beam CT imaging to visualize the entire airway, jaw, and dentition in three dimensions. The gold standard for airway diagnosis, treatment planning, and outcomes measurement.

Advanced Diagnostics

๐Ÿ’ช
Myofunctional Therapy
Targeted orofacial exercises that retrain the lips, tongue, and facial muscles to function correctly โ€” ensuring long-term stability for all airway and orthodontic treatment.

Habit Correction

๐Ÿฆท
Retainers & Maintenance
Post-treatment maintenance protocols to preserve the airway development we’ve achieved together. We don’t just close cases โ€” we ensure your results last.

Long-Term Stability

๐Ÿค
Physician Referrals
We partner with pediatricians, ENTs, sleep physicians, and myofunctional therapists to coordinate comprehensive airway care. If you’re a provider, we’d love to connect.
