Here, at Dr. Azizi's office, orthodontic treatment can improve breathing in addition to straightening teeth. Dr. Azizi can use specific treatments to adjust the position of the teeth and jaws, which may help open up the airway and enhance airflow. For example, palatal expanders can widen the upper jaws, creating more space in the mouth and potentially improving nasal airflow. Similarly, Dr. Azizi can reposition the jaw thus keeping the airway more open during sleep, which may alleviate symptoms of sleep apnea.
