Summary
🎙️In this episode Dr. Stacy sits down with orthodontist Dr. Jackie Demko for an honest, experience-driven conversation about airway, growth, and the realities clinicians face when patients don’t fit neatly into traditional timelines or treatment silos. Dr. Demko shares how her clinical perspective has evolved over time, what she began noticing in patients long before airway became a mainstream conversation, and why so many individuals struggle to get clear answers when dentistry and medicine fail to communicate. Together, they explore patterns seen repeatedly in real patients, the long-term impact of delayed intervention, and why listening carefully often reveals more than any single test or protocol. This episode blends clinical insight with patient-centered reality, offering perspective for providers and patients alike who are navigating complex airway, growth, and sleep-related concerns.
