As Dentists...we often look at breathing and sleep problems as a problem with a mechanical-only solution (CPAP or Mandibular Advancement Devices). What controls the anatomy? The Neurology!
Dr. Stacy Ochoa and Dr. Angie Tenholder discuss the importance of sleep and airway health for children in a podcast. They highlight the confusion and controversy surrounding the topic and the need for more conversations. The traditional approach to managing obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is mechanical and does not address the root of the problem.
They introduce the concept of ALF therapy, which is 80% functional and 20% structural, and uses the tongue to make room for the teeth. The podcast also discusses the connection between OSA and the trigeminal cardiac reflex, the importance of gut health for sleep, and the role of the cranial vault and fascia in controlling muscles.
The ALF community is highlighted as a platform where more discussion needs to happen, and new appliance designs are being utilized to provide consistency in the product. The speakers stress the importance of treating children early to reset neural pathways and minimize the impact on the adult population.
