Ep. 64, The Winds of Change Are Growing Stronger!, Drs. Maz Moshiri and Reza Movahed

In this episode of the ASAP Pathway Podcast, Drs. Stacy and Tracey welcome two of the country’s most respected voices in airway and orthodontic health: Dr. Movahed, an oral & maxillofacial surgeon, and Dr. Moshiri, a nationally recognized orthodontist and educator. Together, they break down the real patterns behind sleep-disordered breathing — what dentists are seeing every day, what often gets missed, and why so many children fall through the cracks in a system that wasn’t designed to diagnose airway problems early.

From DISE findings to skeletal growth trajectories, from tonsils and adenoids to facial patterns and orthodontic timing, this episode reveals how much can be uncovered before a child struggles. The conversation is honest, insightful, and refreshingly collaborative — showing what’s possible when dentistry, orthodontics, and surgery work together rather than in isolation. Whether you are a dentist, orthodontist, ENT, myofunctional therapist, or a parent trying to understand your child’s symptoms… this episode will change the way you think about pediatric airway forever.

They also discuss the upcoming 3rd year of the Winds of Change conference in Chicago. Bringing Dentistry and Medicine together on the topic of airway and sleep health solutions, with live labs in addition to lectures.

If you’ve ever felt stuck between disciplines, unsure when to refer, or frustrated by fragmented patient pathways — this episode is a roadmap.
