The article discusses the application and importance of digital technology in the early intervention and multidisciplinary treatment of malocclusion in children. It emphasizes the significance of early intervention during the critical period of children's growth and development, pointing out that the high plasticity of children's jawbones can be leveraged to achieve efficient correction through simple and gentle methods. Additionally, the article introduces digital oral habit-blocking treatments, such as the application of tongue crib appliances, and explores the potential of digital clear aligner technology in the treatment of malocclusion in children. Finally, by discussing the multidisciplinary diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for pediatric obstructive sleep apnea, the article underscores the importance of multidisciplinary team collaboration in ensuring that patients receive scientific and effective treatment.
