According to the CHDSP, Heart disease and stroke are the number one and number three causes of death, and a leading cause of disability, among Californians. Compared to the nation, California has slightly above average rates for coronary heart disease and stroke mortality. Heart disease and stroke are common shared risk factors of patients with OSA, Obstructive Sleep Apnea. Dental Continuing education company, Sleep Group Solutions trains dentists on identifying and offering treatment to those who suffer from the deadly disorder and for those who are not able to tolerate CPAP therapy. New partnership between SGS and REM Sleep Lab will partner dental practices who are educated and trained on identifying risk factors for sleep apnea with local sleep labs and physicians who can provide necessary diagnostic testing.
