Today's throwback episode features Dr. Marianna Evans! Al spoke with her at the Spear Summit back in 2022 and her message was so good, you should hear it again! Marianna Evans is a dual specialty trained (perio/ortho) dentist who practices outside of Philadelphia! Marianna presented on the main stage at the 2022 Spear Summit on diagnosing and identifying the hypoplastic maxilla. Marianna's practice has a strong focus on treating the airway in children and they had a wide ranging conversation about airway, early orthodontic intervention and the "why" of airway developmental problems. How can you help your orthodontist to embrace an airway paradigm shift? Taking one case at a time with your interdisciplinary team Focusing on evidence based medicine and dentistry How CBCT changed how we think about orthodontics and airway Much of the "airway literature" is in ENT journals, less in dental/ortho journals How Marianna's network influenced the way she practices (in the same building as a pediatric sleep doctor!) Marianna sees patients from age 0 to 75! Why do we see airway problems now? Marianna has thoughts!
