The HealthyStart® System supports early intervention of developmental challenges; your child’s bright future
Did you know that your child’s persistent fatigue, inattentiveness, and headaches may be rooted in the oral cavity? Yes, it’s true! And, as experts in oral anatomy and function, you can trust Advanced Dental to get your child off to the best possible, healthiest start in life with the aptly named HealthyStart® System.
An Introduction to HealthyStart® for Kids in Aliso Viejo, California
This treatment approach is based on more than five decades of research and development. It is designed to support proper airway development and healthy breathing in early childhood.
This two-phased system uses a series of FDA-cleared, BPA-free oral devices to correct habits that interfere with healthy development and nasal breathing. These oral appliances also function as “expanders” to open dental arches. In doing so, imbalances in the jaws are addressed early. Teeth are also guided into their proper positions as soon as they erupt or break through the gums.
“Treatable” Conditions
As indicated, oral anatomy and function play an essential role in the health of organs and systems that are seemingly distant and unrelated to the teeth, gums, and mouth. For instance, oxygen deprivation may result from sleep-disordered breathing. It is a contributing factor behind the symptoms mentioned above, which can negatively affect academic performance, facial appearance, and overall health and well-being. SBDs are also associated with attention deficit and hyperactivity, chronic allergies, and a range of other childhood complaints.
Crowding in the upper and lower arches, as well as an underdeveloped jaw, bite-related problems, and habits and behaviors like persistent thumb-sucking and pacifier use can all affect the size of the airway. When air cannot move properly, it affects the body’s ability to oxygenate tissues and organs.
Invest in your child’s bright future
The two-step HealthyStart® System presents a drug-free, non-invasive, painless, and conservative way to address the underlying source and anatomical anomalies and imbalances responsible for many disruptive symptoms and potentially severe medical conditions. This early intervention can even help your child avoid the need for costly orthodontic or restorative care later in life.
