Sleep Apnea in Dentistry





How familiar are you with sleep apnea? Did you know that in an average-sized dental practice approximately 440 patients are at risk of developing obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)? Sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) continues to rise among men and women, and often goes undetected. Many people don’t realize that oral appliance therapy can help treat OSA and SAS.

This full-day course will educate dental professionals on what OSA is and how it relates to dentistry. Discussions will include:


  • Terminology used in sleep medicine.
  • Knowledge of sleep disordered breathing conditions.
  • The pathophysiology of OSA.
  • The comorbidities of OSA.
  • An introduction to oral appliance designs.
  • The role of dentistry in treating OSA.
