Obstructive Sleep Apnea ’s Connections with Clinical Dentistry

Adding airway services to a dental practice disrupts scheduling, examinations, treatment planning, billing, and team roles. Problems connected with the airway can be addressed with more precise therapy and better prognosis while building confidence between the patient and the dental team. Each team member must understand the connections between airway problems and patient health and be able to talk about it with confidence. If the entire team supports the inclusion of airway therapy into the service mix, patients will feel well cared for and rewards to the office will be plentiful.
