Blake Hickey
Blake Hickey went through the full orthognathic journey himself, from childhood braces and a palate expander to adult braces, a SARPE, double jaw surgery, and speech therapy at the end. He is not a doctor or a clinician. He writes from lived experience and years of research, and he runs Double Jaw Marketing, which helps jaw and airway practices reach the patients who need them. Everything here is general education, not medical advice.
