In this Episode: · Why are you suffering? One example is a torqued mandible where one side hits before the other. · A technique for self-diagnosis of a torqued mandible. · What could have prevented you from having bite disfunction and TMD pain? The answer is proper development of the lower third of the face, i.e. the upper and lower jaw. · Pam explains proper craniofacial development and its dependance on proper nose breathing, airway, and proper position of the tongue during infancy. · Pam explains low tongue posture in children who are mouth breathers and the causes of mouth breathing. · The effects of low tongue posture and mouth breathing is a V shaped upper jaw instead of a U-shaped upper jaw. In adulthood, this creates bites that don’t fit. · When the tongue is not in the roof of the mouth, the cheek muscles put force on upper jaw and squeeze it into the unwanted V shape. · This smaller, narrower upper jaw causes constriction from the front of the mouth to the back of the throat which creates more airway issues. · This backward pressure also pushes the joint (TMJ) back into it socket which creates joint issues such as clicking joints, deviation of jaw on opening, etc. · All of these issues can lead to adult TMD pain. · Pam explains what it means if your child snores. · There are different developmental stages and each one is important and needs to be monitored. Example is changing the V palate into a U palate at a very young age. · Tongue tie is discussed. · At what age should your child be monitored by a trained dentist is discussed. · Allergies and tonsils are discussed and their effect on craniofacial development. · Wearing masks effecting development is discussed. · The importance of early intervention. · The art of dentistry (cosmetics) cannot violate the science (the way the teeth fit) summarizes the Podcast.
