Adult palate expansion is POSSIBLE guest star Dr Liz Turner - a podcast by kimi nishimoto

Did you know that you can activate new bone growth using the stem cells in the ligaments around the teeth and in the sutures of the mouth? In dentistry and medical we have been taught that the palate fuses at age 15-17 and without surgery to cut and reposition the jaw bones you are stuck with what you have. The smaller the mouth, the smaller the home for the tongue, and the smaller the AIRWAY will be. Expansion is important if we have patients with small structures or they are not getting full symptom resolution from myofunctional therapy and tongue tie release. Dr Liz Turner is an airway dentist in Denver Colorado at aspen dental private practice of cherry creek. She also does tongue tie releases. Find her on Instagram @drlizzzt. She is also very knowledgeable about myo and when to utilize myo+tongue tie release or expansion+myo. Thanks for joining us Dr Liz!
