Dr. Sandra Kahn D.D.D.S., M.S.D. is a graduate from the National University of Mexico (UNAM) and the University of the Pacifc School of Dentistry in San Francisco, California. She began her work in orthodontics with a specialty in physical anthropology at the University of California in Berkeley focusing her studies on human craniofacial growth and development. After 22 years of clinical experience in orthodontics treating thousands of patients, Dr. Kahn was not satisfied with traditional orthodontics as a solution for treating her own children. In 2013, she retired from “traditional” orthodontics to focus in orthodontics related to a healthy airway, with a concentration on pediatric prevention of long-term Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Her approach is to treat the entire face and not just the teeth. Dr. Kahn has been invited to serve on craniofacial anomalies teams at both Stanford University and the University of California in San Francisco (UCSF).
Dr. Sandra Kahn is an author and international lecturer on the topic of airway centric orthodontics. Dr. Sandra Kahn is currently the only Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics that practices exclusively Biobloc Orthotropics and airway-centric orthodontics.
Prof. Dr. Dr. Wilfried Engelke, ENT doctor, phoniatrist and maxillofacial surgeon, completed his habilitation 30 years ago in dentistry including speech medicine at the University of Göttingen. At the UMG Dental Clinic, he led a consultation hour in orofacial dysfunctions for many years, led research projects and taught students.
