Full title : Craniofacial Dystrophy: Modern Melting Faces

Abstract:

Thirty percent of the population of most western countries have some form of orthodontic treatment - some with major jaw surgery - for a condition that, based on skeletal records, did not appear until modern times. In some situations, this change has happened in one generation and mirrors many ENT conditions, jaw joint problems, sleep apnoea and snoring, in having a poorly understood aetiology or cure.

The concept of Craniofacial Dystrophy is one that attempts to relate all these issues as a syndrome and suggests that faces have changed shape due to environmental influences and that the functions of the face are affected by these changes. It is suggested that this has been overlooked by specialists working in isolation to each other, avoiding fundamental questions that may bring uncomfortable change to their profession.

Treatments tend to be symptomatic and within orthodontics it is suggested that we are treating a condition of the environment as if it were genetic and when viewed as a syndrome, these treatments may be causing more harm than good. Dr Mew has challenged the orthodontic profession to a debate on the cause of crooked teeth, for if we don't know what causes a problem it is unlikely that we will be able to cure it.

About Dr. Mike Mew

Dr .Mike Mew, B.D.S., M.Sc., a third generation orthodontist, is a free thinker and questions why we need mechanical intervention, with retention, to achieve well aligned teeth, which was natural for all our ancestors their entire lives.

Dr Michael Mew qualified in the early 1990s as dentist at the Royal London Hospital. He later entered the renowned Orthodontic programme at Aarhus University in Denmark under the mentorship of Professor Birte Melsen. After several years in general practice, facial surgery and orthodontic training at the NHS, he qualified as an Orthodontist in the early 2000s.

For the last 15 years, he has practiced alongside his father, Professor John Mew, to improve the Bioblock Orthotropic system. Dr Mew continues to study the relationship between orthodontics, posture, ENT problems, snoring and sleep apnea.

He is particularly interested in the Aetiology of Malocclusion and seeks to construct a broad based theory explaining its causes and cures. Dr Mew has lectured extensively in the U.K. and abroad.
