Igel Orthodontics
Starting orthodontic treatment is an exciting time, and we at Igel Orthodontics are looking forward to helping you on your journey to a beautiful, healthy new smile. In addition to giving you your new smile, we will address any breathing concerns identified during your consultation. Misaligned teeth and jaws can limit airways, preventing optimal breathing.

That is why every treatment plan created by Dr. Kort Igel takes into account possible airway disorders - referred to as airway orthodontics. It is important to understand the harmful effects of sleep disorders and airway blockages by analyzing facial structure, nasal passages, sinuses and jaw development before jumping right into recommended braces or Invisalign.

Dr. Igel and our entire team are dedicated to increasing awareness of sleep apnea and stressing the importance of proper breathing and proper sleeping. At Igel Orthodontics, our No. 1 concern is you and your child's overall health and well-being. When it comes to your child, the best way to ensure your child is not at risk for developing sleep apnea is for them to see our orthodontist at a young age while their jaws are still growing.
