For patients who present with dental pain accompanied by chronic sinus pain, headaches, fatigue or breathing disorders, such as asthma, an airway analysis may be in order. A full analysis of the upper airway - from the nose to the paranasal sinuses to the nasopharynx, oropharynx and hypopharynx - can be facilitated by cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging.
Join Dr. Heidi Kohltfarber, renowned oral and maxillofacial radiologist and founder of Dental Radiology Diagnostics, for a comprehensive discussion of airway analysis in the dental practice, including:
-How to radiographically screen and evaluate airway concerns in CBCT images
-A review of airway anatomy, including variations in healthy anatomy and markers of deformed or narrowed airways
-The common causes of a narrowed or deformed airway, such as turbinate hypertrophy, a deviated septum, nasal polyps, tumors, enlarged tonsils and a prolapsed soft palate
-Airway case management from a radiographic and research perspective
