Airway disturbances affect the quality of sleep, causing some children to wake up hundreds of times per night and miss the restorative sleep they need to process and learn effectively. Many childhood mental health and wellness issues, such as stress, anxiety, depression, ADD/ADHD, poor classroom behavior, poor grades, and cognitive delays, can be linked to airway disturbances.
Children do not come with an instruction manual! What may seem like a common problem, or a sleep behavior your child may outgrow, could actually be a sign of an airway disturbance. These signs should not be ignored when it comes to your child and their sleep.

At first, I was skeptical about whether or not to use plastic aligners to straighten my teeth, but I am very glad I decided to make the investment. In just about nine months my teeth were straightened using the clear, comfortable, and easy-to-remove aligners. I’m a busy guy, and using Invisalign fit right into my lifestyle.

What I like best about Invisalign is the fact that I can take them out and floss and brush my teeth and put them back in. So it’s not like I’m working around all this metal in my mouth, trying to get the toothbrush and floss in there.

I always wanted to have straight teeth, but never thought my smile would look this great. Plus, no one even knew when I was wearing them. I couldn’t be happier!

“Since my son has had his expander, I’ve noticed he is doing much better in school. He’s able to attend to tasks and write for much longer stretches. His snoring and mouth breathing resolved itself after having the expander for a few months. He is much happier overall!”

“We have been so thankful for the care our daughter has received from the doctors and team at Cosse and Silmon Orthodontics. Since beginning treatment with her Hyrax, we have noticed a huge improvement in her sleep. She is sleeping so much better through the night and is not snoring nearly as much as she used to. She had snored most of her life, so seeing such a noticeable change has been incredible for our family. It has been amazing to see how orthodontic treatment can make such a positive difference not only in her smile, but also in her overall health and quality of sleep. We are truly grateful for the care and attention given to her.”

We had a great experience with Dr. Silmon and his team. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Dallas took the time to walk us through the entire process, and Dr. Silmon explained everything very clearly and and in a way we could understand. We chose Dr. Silmon not just because of the financial aspect, but because it truly felt like home and we felt like we mattered. Highly recommend!

I’m so glad I made the investment to go with aligners rather than metal braces. I’ve heard stories of people having food stuck in their metal braces, and I didn’t want to go through that. It’s so easy – all I have to do is remove my aligners when I eat.

Cosse & Silmon Orthodontics uses iCAT Cone Beam 3D Dental Imaging (CBCT). CBCT imaging allows us to precisely visualize root positions, impacted teeth, airway disturbances, and a variety of other irregularities, while also providing a quick and comfortable experience for our patients. CBCT technology allows us to place growth and development of the patient’s teeth and jaws at the forefront of our orthodontic treatment plan.
