Early Orthodontic Treatment for Lifelong Health

Early Orthodontic Treatment for Lifelong Health

For kids, sleep, airway and TMJ symptoms often seem “normal”. They’re not. Early treatment used to be 12. Then it was 7. Now we see kids as young as 2.  I want to spot airway and jaw problems as soon as possible so we can reverse them and correct the issues before they become chronic.

A Hidden Epidemic: Sleep Disorders and Their Underestimated Impact

According to Yale Medicine Pediatric obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) can severely disrupt a child’s quality of sleep, leading to tiredness and crankiness during the day. If untreated, it can result in other health issues, including poor growth. OSA affects 3 to 6 percent of children and is associated with repetitive narrowing of the airways. Common consequences include attention problems and, in some cases, hyperactivity.
According to The American Medical Association, approximately 30 million people in the United States have sleep apnea, but only 6 million are diagnosed with the condition.
According to National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) – part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) – the prevalence of temporomandibular joint and muscle disorder (TMJD) is between 5% and 12%. These disorders are at least twice as prevalent in women as men.
According to The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) Sleep plays a vital role in children’s mental and physical health. Insufficient sleep can affect children’s physical health, cognitive capacity, socioemotional processes, and behavioral functioning, impacting their overall development and well-being.

Patient STORIES

In these videos, our patients (and their parents) talk about conditions they struggled with, their treatment, and what life is like now.
We absolutely LOVE everyone at Integrative Dental. Dr. B is so knowledgable, but always takes my feelings and opinion into account when it comes to treatment plans. I so appreciate my opinion as the parent being valued. My son has many sensory struggles and the entire staff goes out of their way to honor his needs and make treatments work for him. Dr. S is so kind and nurturing and makes check ups quick and seamless. The entire team at Integrative Dental has become like family and I cannot recommend them more for all dental needs!
My 6 yo daughter went to Dr. Bieneman for a checkup. She was nervous about it as she hadn't been in years. He was amazing with her and made sure she felt comfortable every step of the way. He showed her each piece of equipment he was going to use, taught her some new fist bumps and even checked her teddy bear to make sure her teeth were good too. 😄 He turned a nervous situation into a superb visit... she left saying "I want to go back again".
I like Integrative approach. Doc. Solomon is a gifted doctor who also respected my need to understand their holistic approach . Mag the office managers let me in with 3 hour notice. Integrative Dentistry is also juice affordable.
Dr. Bieneman and his staff are amazing. I drive an hour to see him. It is worth the drive to have a dentist that understands airway health and offers the most up to date treatment options. He also offers just that- options that we can decide what works best for our family. I would recommend this office to anyone wanting more information and answers regarding airway dentistry and its impact on sleep and overall health.
“Just had an amazing teeth cleaning experience with Ashley! She was professional, gentle, and made sure I was comfortable the entire time. My teeth feel incredibly clean, and I really appreciate her attention to detail. Plus, the front office staff was so welcoming and friendly—it made the whole visit even better. If you’re looking for a great dental team, this is the place to go!”

A Note from Dr. Jim Bieneman

I’m proudly a second-generation dentist. Growing up, my father owned his own dental practice and I was inspired by his passion for the profession and his ability to help patients. Beyond his practice, my dad taught me about the gift of health. Seeing the challenges he constantly overcame as a type 1 diabetic, he instilled in me to value good health as one of life’s greatest assets. Although he passed away during my senior year of dental school, my dad was my champion and my guide. He taught me that I was at dental school to learn the fundamental skills, but my practice of dentistry would be a lifelong learning journey. Over the course of countless continuing education hours, I’ve focused on the areas where my patients experienced the most misdiagnosis: TMJ, sleep, airway, and feeding (for infants and children). Along the way, I’ve also become dual board certified through the American Board of Craniofacial Pain and the American Board of Craniofacial Dental Sleep Medicine, further highlighting my dedication to the highest standards of care.
I’m committed to preventative care for all ages and especially early interventions for children. In some cases, care needs the support of multiple providers, and I advocate for collaborative care and integrated treatment strategies. It’s my goal to provide my patients with care that provides long term health. It is my sincere pleasure to partner with my patients on improving their wellness, and I hope to see you soon.
