"Seldom do I get to share a stellar educational experience for the whole dental team at the post-doctoral level. However in this case I am compelled by virtue of much deserved effort.
The team at Sleep Medicine Network have developed a 3-day in-office training schedule that addresses sleep medicine from the medical perspective designed to allow the interested and motivated dental team to incorporate this treatment option into their repertoire. Their team of 3-4 utilize educational lectures and break out groups with sufficient support documentation to ensure success with treatment from the very first day.
Through delegation each team member is armed with an effective algorithm to manage their component of this complex care system so that they enable each other. In essence you feel, as the owner, that you received 12 days of team training.
My hat is off to Richard Moore, Joe Zelk and Nina Trinh for masterminding this great educational experience and sharing their successful pathway through the minefield of frustration that would otherwise plague the dental team treating sleep problems."

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is defined as the cessation of airflow despite continuously respiratory effort. It occurs when the tongue and soft palate collapse onto the back of the throat, blocking the upper airway and causing air flow into the lungs to be interrupted. View this example.
