The practice utilizes 3D CBCT imaging to map the relationship between jaw joints, muscle function, and airway volume. By shifting the clinical focus from masking symptoms to correcting root causes, Dr. Korous aims to improve patient outcomes in breathing and sleep quality. For pediatric patients, the program integrates Myobrace and palatal expanders, which work to retrain tongue and facial muscles during critical growth windows. This early intervention is designed to steer natural development and potentially reduce the need for intensive orthodontic work in later years.

Adult patients receive a different, specialized protocol centered on Vivos expansion. This removable appliance widens the palate to enhance airflow, serving as an alternative to CPAP machines for those experiencing mild to moderate sleep-disordered breathing. Dr. Korous, who brings over 1,000 hours of advanced training to her clinics, emphasizes that treatment requires a clear understanding of the underlying mechanics. The practice coordinates with sleep medicine specialists when necessary, ensuring that patients receive comprehensive care across the two Frisco locations.
