Dentists from around the world are attending dental continuing education courses focusing on the dental treatment of snoring and sleep apnea. Dental sleep medicine education company, Sleep Group Solutions has instructed thousands of dentists on implementing a proper sleep protocol. Dr. Marty Lipsey, a dentist in the Modesto, CA area, screens and treats patients for sleep apnea, as well as if the founder of Dental Sleep Med Systems, an insurance and billing system for sleep apnea. “Research indicates that ninety-percent of individuals with the disease (OSA) are still undiagnosed. Dentists-qualified in sleep medicine can custom fabricate a simple device worn over the teeth that keeps the tongue from blocking the airway allowing for adequate breathing and oxygen levels while asleep.” says Dr. Lipsey.
Common symptoms and signs of OSA include; Acid reflux, irritability, morning headaches, high blood pressure, hypertension, scalloped tongue, and daytime fatigue. “In sleep apnea chronic, low oxygen levels in the blood stress brain and heart function.” explains Dr. Lipsey. By stabilizing the airway, oxygen is able to pass through without an obstruction, or blockage. Oral appliances, such as The Respire Blue Series, hold the mandible in place, and keep the tongue from creating further obstructions. Dr. Lispey hosts a free webinar each month on the topic and how it relates to billing medical insurance in the dental office. The webinar is available the third Wednesday of each month. The webinar is available to the dental industry, here.
