At Hansen Orthodontics & Aesthetics, we go beyond traditional orthodontics to treat the root cause of breathing-related conditions that affect sleep, energy, and overall health. With airway orthodontics in El Paso, we focus on expanding the airway through strategic dental and jaw alignment offering long-term solutions for both children and adults dealing with issues like snoring, mouth breathing, sleep apnea, or TMJ-related symptoms.
This specialized approach doesn’t just create a straighter smile — it helps you breathe, sleep, and feel better every day.
If you or your child is struggling with sleep, snoring, or chronic mouth breathing, airway orthodontics at Hansen Orthodontics in El Paso could be the key to long-term relief. Let’s take a holistic approach to your smile — one that helps you breathe easier and live better.
Airway orthodontics is a treatment method that prioritizes both dental alignment and airway function. By guiding the growth and positioning of the jaw and teeth, we help improve airflow and reduce the symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea, snoring, chronic mouth breathing, and other sleep-related breathing disorders.
Through advanced techniques like palatal expansion and jaw alignment, we not only create space for the teeth to align naturally — we also open up the upper airway for improved respiratory health.
Airway orthodontics can be life-changing for both adults and children who show signs of restricted airflow or chronic breathing issues. You might be a candidate if you experience:
Early evaluation is key — especially for children. The sooner treatment begins, the easier it is to guide healthy airway development and prevent long-term complications.
While traditional orthodontics focuses on straightening teeth and improving bite function, airway orthodontics is designed to improve breathing and quality of life. This comprehensive approach uses similar tools — like braces or aligners — but with the added goal of opening and supporting the upper airway.
Both can be combined to deliver transformative results — inside and out.
This treatment supports more than your smile. Patients often experience life-changing improvements like:
When breathing improves, so does your body’s ability to rest, recover, and function.
