Consider This

If you don't breathe , you will die:-

3mins without oxygen,

3 days without water,

3 weeks without food,

and 1/3 of your life spent asleep,

hopefully breathing properly !

How can a Dentist help you breathe?

Well, the lower jaw and tongue control how well you breathe through your mouth,

and the upper jaw ( maxilla ) forms the palate , sinuses and walls of the nasal airway,and so controls how well you breathe through your nose.

A dentist who knows about orthodontics can widen the palate and therefore the floor of the nose to open the nasal airway.

A dentist who knows about sleep disordered breathing can help prevent the tongue blocking against the soft palate, reduce snoring and open the oral airway.

So listen up!  ...    because you can't breathe through your ears !
