Zero complications. I went home that same night and ate normal food. It was awesome and it really helped changed the way I breathe due to way better leverage of the tongue.

@@projectairwayigprojectairw1448 that's amazing 🤩 so happy for you. Thank you for your hard work In providing such amazing information. Subscribed and following 🔥👍

Hi Grieg , Had u difficult pronouncing spanish R or rolling R’s before tie releasing?

My tongue never worked well prior to this and now I have way better control.

Find a good myofunctional therapist. I no longer need a CPAP!

It's on my IG page. My airway size doubled!

True dat!

Hey there, for many people like myself, the tongue is too big because my jaws never developed when I was young. This is where consulting with a good airway ortho to see what they think may be a solid option. I ended up expanding at 43 years old and went from the jaw of a 5 year old to a fully grown adult jaw and now my tongue actually fits. Best of luck.

@@projectairwayigprojectairw1448 do you think Mewing could Work as an Expander Substitute too? Im 19 years

I'm the patient in this video

@@projectairwayigprojectairw1448 thanks :)

You should have more range of motion but you won't know about your speech until you do it and see! Best of luck!

Check out my IG @projectairway I run a gym as my full time job and don't have enough time to post like I would like on all platforms. 95% of my stuff is on IG if you want to follow along. Post there almost daily but I'm doing amazing at this point. I have had a number of procedures ever since doing my SARPE

Nothing has helped me like expansion. Ever since I literally have zero allergies ever anymore which is crazy. The excite can help but it it's a pipe size issue w clogging, not sure how much more it can do for you which is why I get the whole cost piece. Have you ever played around with the Intake System or Mute nasal dilators on Amazon. They are easy low hanging fruit that can def help sleep. My mom loves them. At the end of the day sleep breathing usually comes back to pipe size and if the pipe size is lacking it's cuz the palate is too small and thus the tongue has nowhere to go either. I would always suggest a consult with an airway ortho and just see. Good luck!

​​@@projectairwayigprojectairw1448The Intake System is actually a very smart design. I am having a good experience with it. I'll have to visit a doctor on the airway thing for sure for a finishing touch after I have maxed out the benefit from the easy options. This information is so under the radar, it's crazy!

For sure. Check out my iG page @projectairway that I share most of my stuff

It's probably cuz your maxilla is way too small. I would check out my IG page @projectairway. I would measure your intermolar width and see where you are at. If you're not around 37-40mm, there is a good chance this could be why you are experiencing what you are talking about.

Glad you think so!

Yes. That is correct.

Yes. That was a few years back but it's still right around that and even cheaper in some places that use clear aligners. Really depends on how it's all getting put back together.

You can find good people online and it really depends if you're good about doing the work on your own and if you do 30 min vs hour sessions. Sessions ranged from $75-150 depending on length. Just make sure you get enough good stuff and do it for about 2 months prior to create stickiness for keeping the new length once it's released.

Yes I had UARS. I also had intermolar width of 31mm and after expansion I am now 42. There are a number of docs you could fly in and have them do it here if that ever made sense. It's life changing and my airway is now 2x. It was a game changer. The biggest thing that SARPE/MARPE/MIND/EASE does is dramatically changes nasal volume. I battled with allergies my whole life and now I don't feel anything in my nose ever. NO post nasal drip, no runny noses, no more allergy sprays, it's insane. Make sure to follow my IG: @PROJECTAIRWAY because I don't really use youtube a ton. Best of luck!

Super easy 30 min treatment. You can't even feel anything except the initial needle. Super easy and would def do this again hands down!

For sure. I felt a difference in a week and it just kept getting better.

Maybe because I wasn't a local patient. I would ask Dr. Z.

There are a lot of causes but in many cases people have a palate that is too small and the tongue does not fit. Therefore they can't support the weight of the head until something is done about that. In order to balance the head one needs a tongue that fits on the palate coupled with a balanced occlusion, tmj joints, and upper cervical vertabrae.

Ya so just noticed this and this was my first symptom I didn’t know where to place my tongue suddenly

@@evelynhernandez7106 I had the mouth of a small child as an adult and realized the same for myself. This is where expansion changed the game for myself! Good luck!

For sure. It is one of the most important components to support the head.

did you experience that improvement!

@@singha__ yes, but I also expanded by palate. Often those 2 things go hand and hand so uprading the hardware coupled with some myofunctional therapy was a game changer

Thank you. I appreciate the love!

It can def help improve the size of your pipes. You just need to make sure there is no blockage preventing the increase in size from working!

Did you notice nasal congestion during the opening time? I'm going on day 7 and I have 5 days left to open my palate... my nose is a little stuffy... is it normal?

Frost Smiles- Ortho, Dr Bradley Porter Surgeon

For sure. It was super easy and you're in and out in 15 mins tops. You don't even feel anything. It's really pretty easy. I have had many surgeries and I wouldn't even call this surgery because it's quick and painless. You're in good hands!

I wouldn't even call this surgery. It's literally super simple and easy. I just breathe a ton better and the more tongue you have available the easier it is to breathe. Well worth it.

Did you have your cone beam scans from a dental office ? Does this mean we can submit our own images to Dr Zhagi as part of the consultation and save the cost of the cone beam if we have our own? I inquired about the surgery fee and while it’s not outrageous , the thing that’s going to hinder me from actually going forward with it assuming I am a good candidate, are the myofunctional fees before and after . Makes me sad because I really wish I could do this but the therapy costs on top of the surgery itself , I just cannot manage unless I put it all on credit and just make minimum payments for who knows how long.

For sure. Have him reach out to me on IG @projectairway I also do consults helping people navigate the airway space if you guys ever need help

No this only frees up the mobility of the tongue!

$1495 but not sure if that is the regular price since I had done an online consult prior to flying out!

@@projectairwayigprojectairw1448 is it true that it relives shoulder tension neck pain and tmj issues

@@projectairwayigprojectairw1448 thanks 🙏

🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

It took me like 2 weeks. It was weird in the sense that I felt blocked like you for a solid 10 days but I could feel that the mechanics in my nose changed after a few even though I was blocked and then right around 2 weeks it was magic. I would just go with it and be patient. The good stuff is coming!

👊🏼👊🏼

Also, is this procedure very similar to turbinate reduction?

I had already had a septoplasty 2 years prior to my expansion. If I knew what I do now I would expand, then make sure the tongue lives on the palate with good oral posture and then I would have had the Vivaer and Septoplasty done at the same time. Most docs aren't going to tell you this because most ENT's are never going to pass on $$ and tell you to expand first and them come back. But if your tongue can't fit on your palate and they are fixing your septum there is no support underneath it and it's just going to happen again!

Thank you for your response, Yeah that makes total sense. So rather than getting Septoplasty done at the same time at SARPE, I should wait till the expansion is corrected first?

@@ambergordon352 I would ask your surgeon. About this and if the septum doesn't have the support, how is it going to hold. What I am saying is that when you have the septum fixed is having an ENT that does the Vivaer Procedure and you can't get both done at the same time because oftentimes people with collapsed palates also have nasal valve collapse from lacking the tongue support on the palate!

@@projectairwayigprojectairw1448 Not always true, depends where your from! I had my Balloon Sinuplasty/Eustachian Tube Dilation last month. And having turbinates reduction in late Jan of next year for free as I'm from UK so will be on the NHS 😀

IT'S WAY BETTER. I WOULD SAY THAT PROCEDURE INCREASED MY FLOW BY 30-40%. I HAVE BEEN MEASURING IT WITH A PNIF AND IT'S CRAZY TO SEE THAT ONE LITTLE THING HELPED. I THINK BEING A MOUTH BREATHER MY ENTIRE LIFE TOOKS IT'S TOLL ON EVERYTHING.

​@@projectairwayigprojectairw1448 I'm seriously debating it. Do you still feel it was worth it? How long has it been?

@@projectairwayigprojectairw1448 Is it better to do the open method of surgery, does the doctor have more space to maneuver, and the operation is difficult, but since the problem is deep, maybe the open method is better for 100 percent efficiency? what do you think

@@danijelkadic7929 I think the fact that it's non surgical is amazing. I think people should always consider this and possibly find a surgeon that does both and get their opinion and then a second based on your case to see what is possibly getting left on the table.

@@projectairwayigprojectairw1448 thank you, you need to find a good surgeon, it is very difficult.

I get it. It can be super complicated to navigate. If I can ever help in any way please shoot me a dm on IG.

Thank you so much! Appreciate the kind words and I'm so happy for you my friend. Shared your letter with a mom the other day trying to get insurance reimbursement for her son!

@@projectairwayigprojectairw1448 amazing!
