ABOUT OUR GUEST:
Dr. Barry Raphael has been a specialist in orthodontics since 1983 but had a change of heart and mind in 2008 when he learned that Soft Tissue Dysfunction is THE cause of malocclusion. Since that time he has included helping children and adults achieve an optimal physiologic airway and breathing pattern as a primary goal of his treatment with the straightening of teeth as a secondary "icing-on-the-cake" outcome. He labeled his practice in Clifton, New Jersey, as the Raphael Center for Integrative Orthodontics in 2014. Today, over 80% of the people that come to see him and his team come for airway, growth and development and overall wellness as primary goals for themselves. His team includes a myofunctional therapist, a craniosacral therapist, a functional physician, a nutritionist, and a team of Myobrace Health coaches to teach his patients how to maximize their oral and overall health.
