The models shown here depict changes observed after 6 months of Tooth Pillow use in a 7-year-old patient of Dr. Denison’s.
The parents initially sought a consultation due to frequent ear infections and mouth breathing, along with snoring, bedwetting, teeth grinding, and night sweats. Given their own orthodontic histories, they wanted to take a proactive approach.💙
🦷 The patient presented with underdeveloped jaws, crowding, increased overjet, and a Mallampati Class 3 airway. Dr. Denison recommended the Tooth Pillow as an early intervention.
⭐️At the 3-month follow-up, sleep quality had already improved.
⭐️By 6 months, new scans showed:
✔️Reduced overjet
✔️Improved deep bite
✔️Better spacing in the lower jaw
✔️Central incisors erupted into ideal positions
Tooth Pillow is a preventative, pre-orthodontic treatment that supports proper jaw growth, encourages nasal breathing, and addresses the root causes of misalignment.
💨A narrow airway can contribute to symptoms such as mouth breathing, ear infections, dark circles, bedwetting, teeth grinding, snoring, restless sleep, fatigue, headaches, poor focus, allergies, and behavioral concerns. These issues are often connected to airway development.
If your child has similar symptoms or you have questions, call to schedule an airway consult with Dr. Denison.
