Tune into Airway Answers episode #54 which is the 𝟓𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐞𝐩𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐝𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 with the legendary 𝐃𝐫. 𝐆𝐫𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐬.  This final episode is a 𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐫 episode ⁉️.  Join us for a deep dive as Dr. Grummons answers some of the following questions (and more): 🎙️
⁣
✅ Were you always utilizing airway-friendly techniques, and how did that evolve?
⁣
✅What about extractions?
⁣
✅Do you think it's important for every orthodontist to be utilizing CBCT imaging? What are your thoughts on using that CBCT to look at airway volume and area of restriction?
⁣
✅ What about DISE in the diagnostic process or helping with the orthodontic plan? 
⁣
✅What about the importance of referring for sleep studies for children and adults, and does that change your orthodontic treatment plan?
⁣
✅ How do you handle cases where you see the airway problems, and the child has gotten a sleep study, and it comes back mild or just snoring and there's no recommendation. How do you handle that with the parents and the patient to keep them on board with your orthodontic plan? 
⁣
✅ Grummon's protraction face mask: where is it affixed on the face, why there, and does that impact midface development? 
⁣
✅ What are your thoughts on protraction facemask for adults doing MARPE?
⁣
✅Would you say a headgear is ever appropriate?
