His goal is to help dentists identify and treat TMD patients as a segue to orthodontics and airway health. This allows practitioners to further address and treat the underlying cause of TMD, which is underdevelopment of the jaws or refer to an orthodontic specialist.

Pediatric Mini-Residency for the Orthodontist with

Dr. Bret Christensen

Dr. Christensen has been treating Sleep Disorder Breathing since becoming an orthodontist in 1999. For children, being trained in bio-progressive orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics, he has been able to treat breathing disorders through growth and development. It is a matter of knowing what is causing the airway obstruction. Treatment could consist of expansion of the upper and/or lower jaws.

Happy AHS Clients!

Dr. Johnson Hagood, FL

Hiring Lauren and Dr. Miraglia was one of the smartest things I have done in my career.

Airway driven orthodontic expansion is the most important clinical addition ever to my practice

Dr. Frank Graziano, NY

Amazing information on treating and diagnosing airway issues. Not only will your clear aligner technique improve but you will be helping your patients airway issues and TMD problems at the same time.

Please don’t think twice about this.

Dr. Linda-Jones Laper, MD

I had Lauren come to Baltimore to work with my assistant and hygienist. This is the perfect follow up to the mini residency.

It really takes every thing full circle with every one on board talking the same language (which she helps with a lot!)

Thanks Lauren for spending a delightful day with us.
