Does your child need sleep apnea treatment near Beverly Hills? At the Beverly Hills Aesthetic Dentistry Center for Sleep and Breathing Wellness, our skilled provider offers sleep apnea treatment to children and adults, including Vivos therapy for children.
Dr. Hanam-Jahr is certified in the Vivos method for Complete Airway Repositioning and Expansion (CARE), a multidisciplinary approach to treating dentofacial abnormalities, including mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea and snoring. It is the first nonsurgical, noninvasive, FDA-approved and cost-effective treatment alternative to a CPAP machine, and can address the upper airway malfunctions that contribute to sleep-disordered breathing in children.
Vivos therapy is designed to provide long-lasting improvement to the airway structure, while improve breathing, smile alignment, and more. This is achieved with a unique combination of exercises and appliances, replacing the need for the CPAP machine or similar ventilation devices. Dr. Hanam-Jahr is proud to introduce the innovative Vivos system to her patients in Beverly Hills, CA and beyond!

What is Vivos Therapy?
Vivos therapy for your child's sleep apnea treatment will begin with an evaluation at our Beverly Hills dental office. The evaluation will assess the structure of the upper airway, using advanced imaging tools to keep the process seamless and comfortable. Our team will use the information gathered at the evaluation to custom-craft a treatment plan based on your child's unique needs. Typically, treatment will incorporate the Vivos system's exercises and appliances, specially designed to gradually correct and restore proper airway function.
Vivos Therapy and Orthodontics for Children
If your child needs braces or orthodontic treatment to align their smile, Vivos can help. Vivos therapy can align the teeth without the use of traditional braces — instead, its custom-fitted appliances will gently shift the teeth and jaw into a healthier, more aligned position. This shift allows improved airflow and promotes proper sleep, along with the added benefit of properly aligned teeth and jawbones!
The Vivos System and ADD/ADHD in Children
Has your child been diagnosed with ADD or ADHD? Sleep disorders are often considered an underlying contributor to these conditions. Your child's sleep apnea treatment with Vivos will include appliances designed to shift the teeth and jaw into a healthier position, opening up the airways to reduce risks of sleep-disordered breathing and its associated health implications.
How Long Does Vivos Therapy Take?
The custom-fitted appliances included in the Vivos treatment system are designed to be worn for several hours a day, with treatment lengths depending on the severity of the symptoms and condition. At your child's sleep apnea consultation with Dr. Hanam-Jahr, she will thoroughly assess their needs to create their customized treatment plan.
