Dr Bill Hang graduated from the University of Illinois College of Dentistry and the University of Minnesota Orthodontic program where he briefly taught orthodontics. After about 7 years of having a traditional orthodontic practice, he became dissatisfied with the faces he was producing and set out to learn and develop techniques that would produce the best facial balance. Bill then became aware of the significant positive affects some of his treatments had on the airway. This opened up a whole new aspect of orthodontics - maximizing the airway for ALL orthodontic patients and specifically treating patients with sleep disordered breathing or obstructive sleep apnea. Dr. Hang, a staunch advocate of Myofunctional Therapy, emphasizes the importance of optimal oral posture for facial and airway development. Renowned locally and globally, he's received the AAPMD Lifetime Achievement Award for his work in airway optimization. Passionate about OrthO2Health, Dr. Hang offers two mentorships: Hang E.C.H.O.™ (Early Childhood Health-Centered Orthodontic) and Hang E.R.R.S.™ (Extraction Retraction Regret Syndrome). ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ABOUT OUR HOST:Nicole is a Speech-Language Pathologist, Certified Orofacial Myologist, an International speaker, and an Ambassador for the Breathe Institute.
