Airway Development & Management

Where Medical and Dental providers
join to improve your airway

Welcome to TransENTdental

Your solution to a better airway.

about us

Because a large segment of the U.S. population obtains regular dental checkups, dental offices are an ideal setting for screening the general population for airway related distrubances. By collaborating with ear, nose and throat specialists, dentist professionals can play an important role by using ultralow dose scanning technology.

Using ultralow dose CBCT machines can screen for upper respiratory breathing disorders such as sinus diseases, airway obstructions and obstructive sleep apnea. This technology inspires Otolaryngologists and Dental Medicine professionals--particularly orthodontists—to collaborate and help patients breathe, sleep and live better.
