Treating People, Not Just Teeth: A Physiologic Approach to Dentistry (w/Drs. Hindin & Meyer)[Ep.144]

Episode Description: Join me for an in-depth conversation with husband-and-wife dental team Drs. Jeffrey Hindin and Jill Meyer, who are pioneering a whole-health approach to dentistry that addresses the root causes of disease rather than just treating symptoms. Key Topics Discussed: • Building an etiology-focused practice that treats underlying causes, not just symptoms • Early orthodontic intervention and airway-focused care in children • The significant overlap between TMD and sleep-disordered breathing • Heart rate variability (HRV) and objective physiologic measurements in treatment • Oral appliances for athletic performance enhancement • Common signs of sleep disorders in children and adults • Navigating resistance from traditional orthodontic approaches • The future of sleep medicine, including emerging pharmacological treatments Key Takeaways: • Early intervention in children can prevent the need for invasive treatments and sleep appliances in adulthood • Mouth breathing is a critical early indicator of sleep-disordered breathing and should not be dismissed • The airway affects the autonomic nervous system, impacting everything from athletic performance to mental health • Depression and anxiety are the #1 comorbidities associated with sleep-related breathing disorders • Orthodontists are uniquely positioned to prevent adult TMD and sleep issues through early treatment • Treatment should focus on normalizing anatomy and addressing root causes, not just straightening teeth Resources Mentioned: • Hindin Center: https://hindincenter.com/ • American Academy of Physiological Medicine and Dentistry: https://aapmd.org/ • AAPMD Collaboration Cures Meeting: May 15-16 in Pittsburgh Connect with Dr. Mike Deluce: • Website: https://theorthocoach.com/ • Email: dr.mike@theorthocoach.com • Join The DOC Community on Facebook for more great content and discussions:   / 1cb9rkqvde   • Check out the DOC CE Courses: https://theorthocoach.com/ce-courses/ *If you found value in this episode, please share it with colleagues and leave a 5-star review on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, or Spotify.
