On Sunday morning, Dr Kandasamy had to debate the very hot topic of Airway Orthodontics and its growing popularity amongst dentists and orthodontists worldwide. It is clear to say that we still have a lot of work to do in this area. However it is important that science is put first in the best interests of patients over unsupported beliefs and cheap marketing tactics. Families need to do their homework and make sure that the clinicians they see practice evidence based care. As they say If it is too good to be true, it probably isn’t! 🥊💫

I was recently invited to give a lecture at the Malaysian Dental Congress in Kuala Lumpur. It has been almost 30 years since I last visited KL. It is certainly the New York of South East Asia. The hospitality and collegiality as well as the culture and food was certainly unforgettable. Thank you MIDEC for inviting me and embracing the evidence whole heartedly!

Finally back from Austin, Texas. I had the privilege of being invited to speak the at the 67th Annual OERF meeting last week. I was asked to talk about the future of our specialty and what we can do to raise our standards of care using the evidence. My nickname was Dingo when I did my fellowship in the US two decades ago. Not bad for a Dingo all the way from the most isolated capital city in the world! I was blessed to spend time with one of my mentors Lysle Johnston and other greats of the specialty. It was also special to catch up with my class of 2004/2005 SLU. Some of my colleagues I have not seen for nearly 20 years!

This is my recent editorial as Associate Editor for the AJODO. There is simply not enough evidence to support treating sleep and airway problems in children with orthodontics. There is a current trend that is misleading families to believe that early orthodontic treatment is critical in children as young as 3 years of age to manage or prevent future airway problems. A plate isn’t going to fix your child’s breathing problems. Spend your money to have your child’s airway issues assessed by your family doctor or ENT specialist. Also speak to your evidence based orthodontist for advice. Always do your homework before you choose your health professional. I have spent over 20 years trying to keep my profession honest and protect the public from unnecessary expensive and elaborate treatments. More often simpler more cost efficient and appropriately timed methods yield as good if not better results.💫 https://www.ajodo.org/action/showPdf?pii=S0889-5406%2823%2900647-9

Straight after presenting at the FDI World Dental Congress in Sydney Dr Kandasamy flew over to Saint Louis, Missouri to present at Saint Louis University and the OERF meeting. The post graduate students heard Dr K’s thoughts on the future of the speciality and how to get prepared for clinical practice. The next few days were followed by lectures on orthodontics, pain and breathing at the 65th Annual OERF meeting.

Dr Kandasamy was in Sydney last week presenting at the FDI World Dental Congress on the topic of Dental Sleep Medicine and the controversies and mistreatments associated with this area of dentistry and medicine. The symposium was very well received and the audience learnt a lot about the current evidence which they could use in their daily clinical practice.
