“From Occlusion to Oxygenation: The Expanding Role of Paediatric Dentists in Airway Health” is an insightful webinar that delves into the transformative shift in pediatric dentistry—from focusing solely on teeth alignment and bite (occlusion) to recognizing and addressing the vital role of airway health in a child’s overall development. Led by Dr. Padminee Krishnan, an expert in Airway-Focused Pediatric Dentistry, this session will explore how early identification and intervention in breathing disorders, mouth breathing, tongue ties, and jaw development can have a profound impact on sleep, behavior, speech, feeding, and long-term health. The webinar aims to empower dentists and healthcare professionals with a deeper understanding of the signs, tools, and collaborative approaches needed to support growing children holistically.
