Interview With Dr. Derek Mahony - An Airway Orthodontist's Perspective on Mouth Breathing

Описание: I had a such a great time chatting with Dr Derek Mahony during this interview for Mouth Breathing Awareness Month.

I asked him to share more about his PHD research on sleep disordered breathing in children, and help people connect the dots between mouth breathing and poor sleep.

I'm lucky to consider Derek a friend and colleague. He's a brilliant leader in the fields of orthodontics and dentistry, and his research is going to be a game changer for how we treat patients with myofunctional symptoms and sleep disordered breathing in the future.

We covered SO MUCH in this interview:
Sleep Disordered Breathing as a syndrome (SDBS)
Facial growth and development in kids
Drop in IQ related to SDB
Palatal vault and hyoid bone positioning in relation to SDB
ADHD and learning
GERD and constipation
Mewing in Australia

He even gives shout outs to Dr Kevin Boyd, Dr Soroush Zaghi, Dr Sten Linda Aronson, Dr John Mew, Marc Moeller, Audrey Yoon, Al Fonda, Jim Popadopolis, Dr Steven Lin, Marissa Santos, Sandra Kahn,

Thanks again Derek!
