Bedwetting? ADD? Snoring? Are These Familiar?

Sleep disordered breathing can have many long-term effects on a child, and our Healthy Start program can help your child avoid many of these conditions

Conditions that can be traced back to poor sleep or Sleep Disordered Breathing

  • ADD/ADHD
  • Bedwetting
  • Emotional Behavior and Depression
  • Mouth Breathing
  • Sleep Apnea
  • Snoring
  • An estimated 20 percent of children suffer from sleep disordered breathing (SDB) which can be directly related to quite a long list of potential health concerns throughout youth development. Studies have shown that a child is 12 times more likely to develop and be diagnosed with ADD or ADHD when they have a sleep disorder of some kind.

    There have been notable connections between children with sleep disorders and problems that were at one time seemingly unrelated, such as academic struggles, underdeveloped jaw formation, chronic allergies, excessive snoring, and even bed wetting.

    Healthy and sound sleep is immensely important for a growing child, and can prevent difficulties with emotional behavior or lack of enthusiasm, and even types of depression. Some of our children’s problems with sleeping are directly related to tongue placement and jaw alignment, most of which can be corrected by utilizing an amazingly effective mouth appliance at night. 

    The best part of this amazing Healthy Start treatment rests in its simplicity and comfort among children that are using it, allowing for the correction of sleep disordered breathing issues and simultaneous teeth alignment; minimizing the need for orthodontic treatment in many cases.

    If your child is regularly suffering from any number of these symptoms or conditions, they should be evaluated for the Healthy Start program. Let us help improve the quality of sleep and daily functionality for your little ones. Give us a call today to schedule an easy and comfortable consultation with our doctor.

    The Benefits of A Healthy Start

    You and your child can begin to see the advantages of our Healthy Start in Woodland Hills almost immediately

    Our Healthy Start treatment utilizes a soft, comfortable, and completely removable device that gently guides incoming teeth into the proper position allowing for the development of good oral habits. The appliance harnesses the force of the tongue to move the upper jaw’s arch in a forward direction, helping to develop effective swallowing habits and opening up the airways in the throat.

    The greatest benefits of Healthy Start are what comes out of providing the quality of sleep that’s essential for healthy mental and emotional development among children at a young age. A wide range of general health benefits begin to come along with this type of process. Studies have indicated fantastic academic advantages among kids that are getting a consistent good night’s rest, with specific improvements being noted in math, science, and spelling categories.

    When correcting jaw and teeth alignment, the list of benefits continues to impress by reducing or eliminating issues with snoring, an uncomfortable bite, poor physical growth, and even speech problems. Good breathing can decrease the risk of cardiovascular problems, high blood pressure, and low blood flow to the lungs by opening the air pathways and increasing oxygen levels at night.

    With such a comfortable and useful appliance, you can be sure to provide your children with the Healthy Start that they truly deserve. Feel free to contact our friendly staff today in order to find out more about this exciting new treatment and schedule an informative consultation with our doctor.
