Wirthlin is the full time craniofacial orthodontist on the cleft and craniofacial team at Texas Children's Hospital. He is one of the few orthodontists in the nation to have completed an American Dental Association-accredited Craniofacial Orthodontic Fellowship Program. Dr. Wirthlin is also a board certified member of the American Board of Orthodontists.
As a member of the cleft and craniofacial team, Dr. Wirthlin helps treat patients born with a variety of facial abnormalities including cleft lip and palate, hemifacial microsomia, Crouzon Syndrome, Pierre Robin, and a variety of other abnormalities. Treating these patients with a team-centered approach allows optimal treatment results as professionals from plastic surgery, speech pathology, orthodontics, pediatric dentistry, otolaryngology, and several other specialties can coordinate and optimize each step of the treatment.
Dr. Wirthlin has been extensively trained in NasoAlveolar Molding (NAM) and begins to work with patients born with cleft lip and palate as early as one week of age. In conjunction with the other specialists on the cleft and craniofacial team, Dr. Wirthlin is able to manage the orthodontic needs of patients born with craniofacial abnormalities from the time of birth up through adulthood.Associate Professorprns:coAuthorOfcoauthor ofFaculty Rankprns:fullNamefull nameprns:hasAuthorListauthor listprns:hasFacultyRankhas faculty rankprns:hasNetworkhas networkprns:hasPublicationVenuepublished inprns:informationResourceReferenceinformation resource referenceprns:isPrimaryPositionis primary positionprns:latitudelatitudeprns:longitudelongitudeprns:mainImagephotoprns:maxWeightmaximum weightprns:medlineTAjournal title abbreviationprns:meshDescriptorUIMeSH DescriptorUIprns:meshSemanticGroupNameMeSH semantic group nameprns:minWeightminimum weightprns:numberOfAuthorsnumber of authorsprns:numberOfConnectionsnumber of connectionsprns:numberOfPublicationsnumber of publicationsprns:personIdPerson IDprns:personInPrimaryPositionperson in primary positionprns:physicalNeighborOfphysical neighborprns:positionInDepartmentposition in departmentprns:positionInDivisionposition in divisionprns:predicateNodepredicate nodeprns:publicationDatepublication dateprns:similarTosimilar toprns:sortOrdersort orderprns:uniquenessWeightuniqueness weightprns:yearyearAcademic ArticleArticleDocumentbibo:pmidPubMed IdentifierAddressvivo:address1address line 1vivo:addressCitycityvivo:addressPostalCodepostal codevivo:addressStatestate or provincevivo:authorInAuthorshipselected publicationsvivo:authorRankauthor rank in publicationAuthorshipDepartmentDivisionvivo:hasResearchArearesearch areasvivo:hrJobTitleHR job titleInformation Resourcevivo:linkedAuthorlinked authorvivo:linkedInformationResourcelinked information resourcevivo:mailingAddressmailing addressvivo:overviewoverviewvivo:personInPositionpositionsPositionvivo:positionInOrganizationposition in organizationvivo:preferredTitlepreferred titlerdf:predicatepredicaterdf:typetyperdfs:labellabelConceptAgentfoaf:firstNamefirst namefoaf:lastNamelast nameOrganizationPersonMD AndersonEDWARD I-FEICHANGEDWARD I-FEI CHANG9662CHANG, EDWARD I-FEIAssociate ProfessorMATTHEW MHANASONOMATTHEW M HANASONO9167HANASONO, MATTHEW MProfessorPATRICK BRYANGARVEYPATRICK BRYAN GARVEY9519GARVEY, PATRICK BRYANAssociate ProfessorELTONLAMBERTELTON LAMBERT10841LAMBERT, ELTONAssociate Professor74Professor10Assistant Professor14Associate Professor6Adjunct Professor6701 FANNINHouston, 77030TXAuthorship 6782212727223626Allori AC, Kelley T, Meara JG, Albert A, Bonanthaya K, Chapman K, Cunningham M, Daskalogiannakis J, de Gier H, Heggie AA, Hernandez C, Jackson O, Jones Y, Kangesu L, Koudstaal MJ, Kuchhal R, Lohmander A, Long RE, Magee L, Monson L, Rose E, Sitzman TJ, Taylor JA, Thorburn G, van Eeden S, Williams C, Wirthlin JO, Wong KWThe Cleft palate-craniofacial journal : official publication of the American Cleft Palate-Craniofacial AssociationA Standard Set of Outcome Measures for the Comprehensive Appraisal of Cleft Care.
