ABOUT THIS EPISODE
On this episode, Dr. Alex and Dr. Priya are joined by board-certified orthodontist Dr. Mike DeLuke to discuss how airway focused orthodontic treatment and early growth guidance can prevent TMJ issues and promote healthy facial development. Learn why traditional tooth extraction methods can be detrimental and how proper tongue posture acts as nature's expander to shape the jaw and expand the airway. Dr. DeLuke shares his expertise and forward thinking ideas, as he exposes systemic barriers like insurance limitations that hinder early pediatric care, while offering practical insights on correcting deep bites and overclosure to relieve chronic joint pain.
