Explore the scientific foundations of breathing and its role in supporting patient well-being.
Breathing is an essential function that profoundly influences both oral and systemic health. In this lecture, we will explore how breathing patterns—specifically nasal versus mouth breathing—can affect oral health, jaw development, and overall well-being. Dentists and dental hygienists, who see patients more frequently than other healthcare professionals, are in a unique position to identify early signs of breathing-related issues.
Learning Objectives
By understanding the connection between breathing and conditions such as sleep apnea, gum disease, misaligned teeth, dental professionals can play a critical role in prevention. This lecture will provide actionable insights on how to recognize these issues, educate patients, and implement preventive strategies that enhance both oral and overall health.
