The Evolution of Airway Dysfunction, Malocclusion, & Chronic Disease (w/Dr. Mark Cruz) [Ep.110]

In this episode of the DOC Podcast, I welcome Dr. Mark Cruz, a dentist with a distinguished career, including serving as assistant director at the UCLA Center for Aesthetic Dentistry and on the editorial board for the Journal of Evidence-Based Dental Practice.

We delve into an evidence-based discussion about the etiology of malocclusion, exploring whether it is determined by genetics, environment, or both, the evolution of craniofacial growth and development, the impact of modern lifestyle on health and malocclusion, the importance of early intervention in patients suffering from sleep-disordered breathing, and the multitude of comorbidities associated with airway obstruction.

Don’t miss this enlightening conversation that bridges the gap between medicine and dentistry, highlighting the significant role of airway and breathing in overall health. This episode is a must-listen for anyone in the dental or medical professions interested in airway health and early intervention.
