Airway Dental Mirror BY C.F. GUGINO

The NEW Airway Dental Mirror, developed by Dr. C. F. Gugino for UConcept,® is a great and simple diagnostic tool dedicated to register the nasal exhalation capacity of your patient and rate it nostril per nostril.

It will allow you to evaluate initial exhalation level and its evolution over time, once the myofunctional treatment is in progress and motivate your patient by showing him the progression of its nasal breathing recovery.
