In this episode, I’m joined by the brilliant and bold Katrina Sanders, RDH, BSDH, M.Ed, RF, to talk about the power of airway awareness from the hygiene chair—even when you’re not a myofunctional therapist.
Katrina shares how hygienists can recognize early signs of airway dysfunction, confidently start the conversation with patients, and become a powerful part of the collaborative care team without stepping outside their scope.
We explore:
•What airway screening looks like in real-time clinical practice
•How to refer out when myo or sleep support is needed
•How to overcome pushback from providers or patients
•Why every hygienist should be the first line of defense in identifying airway dysfunction
If you’ve been feeling the pull toward airway health—but aren’t sure where you fit in—this conversation will leave you feeling empowered, informed, and inspired to take action right from the op.
