16.01.2022 Lets get to know Dr. Richard Hu!!! He was interviewed a couple of days ago, but the audio didnt work out. It went like this: Q. How long have you been a dent...ist for, Dr. Richard? A. I graduated in 2007 from The University of Sydney. Q. What would you say is your passion in dentistry? A. My passion is to treat children early with their jaw growth, to help them achieve health. Q. Why treat early? A. Well, by 6 years old, the jaws have completed their growth by about 50%. By 11 years old, the jaws have completed growth by 90%. So, its important to treat while they still have good potential to grow. Q. How do you make the jaws grow? A. It is crucial to treat the factors that influence the growth. In the case of the jaws, the muscles of the mouth and face need to function as ideally as possible. The tongue needs to be up against the palate at rest and at function, swallow properly, lips closed and breathe through the nose. Q. So, how do you correct the functions of these muscles? A. They need to be trained with exercises. I prescribe exercises according to the dysfunctions and improve the muscle functions over time. Its a bit like going to the gym for the mouth. Q. Its hard enough to do exercises, let alone getting children to do them?!?! A. Yes, its not easy. However, I am a big kid myself and I connect with them on their levels. I tend to be playful, get them to understand why, and praise the positives. So, its motivating for them and they continue to get motivated. Q. Do you have any kids? A. Yes, I have a daughter who is 6 months old. Lots of practice changing nappies because she poops a lot! Hahaha... Q. Is this treatment what you would call orthodontics? A. Well, orthodontics are straightening adult teeth. What I am doing is developing the jaws by correcting the muscle functions, way earlier than when the children have all their adult teeth. I would call this pre-orthodontics. Plus, by helping the jaws to grow to their maximum potentials, usually that means minimizing braces or aligners to straighten the adult teeth later. Q. How long have you been doing pre-orthodontics? A. 10 years by now. Q. You dont think this is science fiction, just like your name suggests, Dr. Hu (Dr. Who)? A. Definitely not! This is science fact! Ive seen the results myself and continue to see them. Q. Do you prefer to be called Dr. Richard or Dr. Hu? A. If you cant remember my name and are thinking who is that doctor...then Dr. Hu (Dr. Who) becomes easier. Either is fine with me... Such an informative and fun interview with the super friendly Dr. Richard Hu. Thank you for sharing a bit about yourself with us!

06.01.2022 Greetings everyone, Most of you are already aware by now that the Australian Dental Association released a consensus statement on Ankyloglossia recently. There are many flaws in the statement, and two of our incredible ankyloglossia pioneers in Australia, Dr. Marjan Jones and Dr. Jeff Kestenberg, have responded with a rebuttal. They were also assisted by our own, Dr. Dan Hanson, in the prompt preparation of the rebuttal. If you are in support of functional oral health, please... read the ADA statement, the rebuttal, and sign the petition below. Share it as extensively as you can to help make a change!!! Below is from Dr. Jeff Kestenberg himself: Dear colleagues, The Australian Dental Association released a statement on Ankyloglossia in early June 2020 that deserves a response from professionals, researchers and families whose experience was not considered in the statement. We have written a rebuttal with explanations of why the consensus statement was flawed from the outset. As fellow professionals, we invite you to read our rebuttal, share it and if you are moved, to help bring about change in how peak bodies in health operate. If you are a professional who has contributed to bringing about better health outcomes due to treatment of oral ties, please co-sign our rebuttal at change.org and share it widely. Please read the premise of our rebuttal on the change dot org link below and you will have access to the full rebuttal from there too.
