Appliance Therapy

For Children

when a child has an underdeveloped upper and/or lower jaw, the airway could be impacted, and the child may struggle with other health issues during their lifetime.

Schedule a consultation with Dr. Sabet for children who exhibit outward symptoms including, but not limited to, ADD / ADHD, learning difficulties, behavior struggles, speech or tongue issues, restless sleep, headaches, bed wetting, night terrors and swollen tonsils and adenoids. These symptoms may appear as a single symptom or can be linked together, indicating a potential underlying root cause that can be addressed with an oral appliance therapy.

Too often these symptoms are misdiagnosed or left untreated, but it is critical to identify them early and during growth stages in order to provide a treatment with more permanent results. Evidence shows that sleep disorders interfere with physical, cognitive, emotional and social development. If left untreated, these children will more than likely be plagued with health issues as adults.

If your child is a candidate, we offer a non-invasive, myofunctional orthodontic treatment, which identifies, evaluates and addresses the airway, oral habits and improper growth and development.

In conjunction with myofunctional appliance therapy, Dr.Sabet also offers a diverse array of fixed and removable expanders.
