About sleep-disordered breathing in children

Sleep-disordered breathing with improper mouth breathing and a restricted airway results in oxygen deprivation, disturbed sleep, and changes that can affect a child’s overall body chemistry. 

One of the most common causes of sleep-disordered breathing in children is obstructive sleep apnea. If left untreated, sleep-disordered breathing in children is a risk factor for the following problems:

  • Daytime fatigue
  • ADHD
  • Learning issues and difficulty concentrating
  • Poor academic performance
  • Irritability, anger, depression
  • Headaches
  • Bedwetting
  • Developmental delay and slow growth 
  • Cardiovascular issues 
  • Chronic allergies

For nighttime breathing that supports wellness

Considering the profound impact that sleep-disordered breathing can have on a child’s overall health, neuropsychological development, and quality of life, getting a timely diagnosis and care can make a world of difference.

A more restful and restorative night’s sleep

The HealthyStart® system offers an innovative and effective approach to addressing sleep-disordered breathing in children. Its FDA-approved oral appliance provides a safe, pain-free, and effective way to achieve stable improvements in jaw growth, dental alignment, and breathing. As worn at bedtime, the soft and comfortable appliance works through the night to facilitate the gentle and natural expansion of dental arches. It helps guide the erupting teeth into proper positions without braces and facilitates an open upper airway for improved airflow. 

Tailored to each child’s specific needs, the HealthyStart system features a series of custom appliances designed to address sleep-disordered breathing and its associated symptoms.
