Mike Mew and ENT surgeon David McIntosh talked FOR nearly 2,5 hours about their fields of expertise and how they could help each other in preventing crooked teeth. This is the first of a series in which they give an introduction to the subject and continue on to talk about the effect of thumb sucking, as well as tongue tie.

A nonprofit organisation which aims to raise awareness of alternative orthodontic methods and ideas, which too few people are informed of. The main aim of the platform is to precipitate debate on why teeth are crooked. Most people are not aware that (in most cases) the dental profession has little or no idea why the teeth are crooked, or for that matter why children need major surgery. Clearly there are genetic issues, however the science is clear, the weight of quality research papers, in respected peer reviewed journals, show that our modern lifestyle is a more important factor and most importantly we can do something about this. This is especially important as sleep apnoea, TMD, forward head posture and a most otolaryngology problems are implicated as other symptoms of the same underlying problem.
