#11 - Dr. Yousefian - The Man with a Plan for the Mandible

Dr. Joseph Yousefian is the only American orthodontist I know who uses mandibular distraction (~MSDO) alongside MSE expansion. This means that Dr. Yousefian does not simply tip teeth in order to get the mandible to match the maxilla following MSE expansion. Rather, his approach is to give the mandible skeletal expansion of its own.A few years ago I did a video called “Don’t Do MSE Without a Plan for the Mandible.” Well, Dr. Yousefian is the man with a plan for the mandible.Free Newsletter and Bookhttps://jawhacks.com1-on-1 Chat with Ronhttps://jawhacks.com/chats0:00 Intro3:08 Discovering airway orthodontics5:35 Experience with TAD-supported expanders7:55 Hundreds of expansion cases9:01 MSDO vs. DAME12:06 Why MSE (MANE) alone is not enough15:11 Supporting airway during expansion with ApnoTX18:44 Sleep apnea discussion19:53 Preventing upper back teeth collapse during MSE27:40 Preventing lip support collapse during MSE42:45 Combining MSE and DAME / MSDO46:03 Why SFOT is not good enough for the mandible47:23 DAME / MSDO and TMJ Problems56:09 Limits of MSE (MANE) without DAME / MSDO1:00:05 Airway benefits of DAME / MSDO for sleep apnea1:05:57 MSE (MANE) surgical assist1:07:42 Piezoelectric bone saw for MSE1:10:32 MSE asymmetry case study1:15:39 What causes MSE asymmetry?1:23:20 ApnoTX combined with MSE (MANE) and MSDO (DAME)1:27:35 Fixing MSE (MANE) asymmetry case study1:28:50 Must wait months after MSE (MANE) before doing sleep study1:29:59 ApnoTX deep dive1:31:50 Appliance for maxillary advancement1:35:25 MMA case study1:40:25 ConclusionNO MEDICAL OR DENTAL ADVICE.
