An Exit Strategy for Sleep Apnea

The biodynamic flux produced by the Homeoblock™ appliance provides an adaptive environment in which the functional and growth potential of all cranial structures can be optimized. This includes airway form and function and the positional movement of the teeth to a more integrative functional location within the context of the bony matrix and optimized neuromuscular feedback.

Before and after cone-beam volumetric tomography airway analysis using Analyze 9.0 developed by the Mayo Clinic.

See Below:

After registering the before and after cone-beam volumetric tomography data using the basion region as a reference point, we can see the changes that have taken place in the pharyngeal airway, the maxilla and mandible, and the inferior turbinate. The green area shows the pre-treatment airway and tooth position. (Please note the lower central incisor as well as the airway.). We see that the maxilla and the mandible have come forward along with the tongue. Furthermore, we see that the posterior pharyngeal wall has toned up to widen the airway. We have a 360 degree improvement of the airway space. The lower turbinate has increased in size.

This patient reduced his apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) from 28 to 1, and no longer requires a CPAP.

Note: Positional movement of teeth to a more integrative functional position.

Bio-Research’s T-Scan results after one year of patient treatment with the Homeoblock™ appliance contributed by Dr. Arnold Valdez, illustrate more functional teeth positioning.
