Dental Sleep Medicine Saves Lives

Posted on Categories Dental Sleep Medicine, Uncategorized Author By Lois

One of the best ways to help your patients is with dental sleep medicine. When you learn how to diagnose and treat obstructive sleep apnea, a potentially deadly condition, you will be helping them live a healthier and potentially longer life.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

If you are an avid reader of the DSM Solutions Blog you’ll know that obstructive sleep apnea is a condition that affects billions of people all over the world.

If you have read most of the dental sleep medicine blogs you’ll also remember that OSA often goes undiagnosed, especially if the person affected sleeps alone.

Undiagnosed obstructive sleep apnea often gets worse as the person can sometimes wake up gasping for breath dozens of times every hour. With that many cessations in breath you can only imagine what it can do to the heart and the rest of the body.

If a person does not know they have obstructive sleep apnea they risk the following:

OSA Risks:

  • Daytime Sleepiness
  • Mood Swings
  • Depression
  • Problems Staying Awake
  • Loss of Libido
  • Morning Headaches
  • Neck aches

OSA also increases the risk of irregular heartbeats and high blood pressure. People with obstructive sleep apnea are also in the high risk category for heart attack and stroke. People with atrial fibrillation tend to have a higher percentage of OSA as well.

Dental Sleep Medicine Training

While obstructive sleep apnea is a horrible condition there is something that you and your team can do about it and that something is called dental sleep medicine training.

With this training everyone in your practice will learn how to diagnose and treat this potentially deadly condition. There really isn’t a better service to offer patients.

DSM Solutions

DSM Solutions created its customized dental sleep medicine training company to help dental practices just like yours offer new services to patients that normally wouldn’t be attracted to the practice.

When you become a part of the solution you’ll be surprised at how much your practice will grow.

Oral Appliance Therapy

One of the most essential parts of the training program is oral appliance therapy. You and your team will learn how to treat OSA using splint and mouth guard therapy customized to the patient’s needs.

Oral appliance therapy is the alternative to CPAP therapy. If you are unfamiliar, CPAP therapy is the most popular treatment for OSA. Sadly, it often goes unused and that is where oral appliance therapy comes in.

Dental Sleep Medicine an Exciting New Service

Posted on Categories Dental Sleep Medicine, News, Uncategorized Author By Lois

Like most doctors you became one to help people. Helping people is the nature of the industry with practitioners always seeking new ways to provide comfort and service. One of those services is dental sleep medicine.

Dentists have a huge opportunity to offer people more than dental care with one of the most exciting opportunities available to dental practices.

That’s right, both dentists AND their teams will learn a new service that most practices in the area probably don’t offer. If they do, they probably don’t diagnose and treat obstructive sleep apnea with oral appliance therapy.

Dental Sleep Medicine Training

DSM Solutions has changed the game with an exciting service that will bring in a different kind of patient, a patient who wouldn’t necessarily visit your practice unless you offered what he or she needed. That service is dental sleep medicine.

Services that Help Your Practice Shine

DSM Solutions are the experts when it comes to dental sleep medicine. The experienced and thoughtful team understands that every practice is different.

That is why every dental practice receives a customized dental sleep medicine training package that is suited for the doctor and every member of the dental team.

That means that every team member is equipped to diagnose and treat obstructive sleep apnea.

What is Obstructive Sleep Apnea?

If you are following along but aren’t sure what obstructive sleep apnea is, become a subscriber of the DSM Solutions blog. To summarize, obstructive sleep apnea, which is also called OSA, is a condition that happens to men, women and children although it is most common in men over 50 and men who are overweight.

OSA causes the sufferer to wake up gasping for breath because the throat closes while sleeping. The throat relaxes so much that the airways become narrow. This makes the brain wake the person up so that they can start breathing again.

Customized Dental Sleep Medicine Solutions

If you are unsure, do your research. It’s a fact that people would rather use an oral appliance than CPAP therapy. CPAP therapy is uncomfortable and often times goes unused making it a useless solution for obstructive sleep apnea.

The alternate OSA solutions that you and your team will learn will help people sleep better. Best of all, the solutions are actually treatments that people will use.

DSM for the Best Solution

Dental Sleep Medicine for New Services

Posted on Categories Dental Sleep Medicine, Uncategorized Author By Lois

If you have been considering new services for your dental practice have you thought about dental sleep medicine training?

DSM Solutions specializes in dental sleep medicine training and will custom design a program that is created especially for you and your dental practice.

The unique programs offered by DSM Solutions do much more than others do. For example, you and your team not only learn how to identify obstructive sleep apnea, but you and your team will also learn how to treat it without surgery instead using oral appliance therapy.

Dental Sleep Medicine Training

The tools and support provided by DSM Solutions are like no other. The focused training sessions are both live and web-based. This gives you optimum support when it comes to learning everything you need to know about obstructive sleep apnea.

OSA is Dangerous

If you have been following the DSM Solutions Blog, you will remember that obstructive sleep apnea is a potentially deadly condition. The condition causes a person to wake up abruptly while sleeping.

This condition occurs throughout the night and can happen up to thirty times or more every hour. Because the brain notices that you aren’t breathing, it will wake you up so that you can catch a breath. This causes issues with your heart and other organs. In fact, people with severe OSA have noticed heart problems.

Your Time is Valuable

As dentists themselves, the team from DSM Solutions understands how valuable your time is. Adding a new service to your menu should be fun and educational, but it should also allow you to continue to work the way you normally do.

DSM Solutions will work around your daily schedule. You will meet with your teachers and instructors on the days that are convenient. Convenient for your entire dental practice, including your team members.

The Advantages of Dental Sleep Medicine Training

One of the biggest advantages of DSM Solutions is overall health. This type of service allows you to treat overall as well as oral health issues. In fact, you will probably see new patients coming through your door because you are offering something that most dental practices do not. This adds value to your dental practice. It also adds dental patient flow because you will be getting patients who will most likely start seeing you for dental care as well.

Dental Sleep Medicine Training is Amazing

Posted on Categories Dental Sleep Medicine, News Author By Lois

If you are looking for a way to increase your patient flow talk to DSM Solutions. The team from DSM Solutions offers dental sleep medicine training to dentists just like you.

DSMT is fairly new and something most dentists probably haven’t heard of. Consequently, it’s excellent for your dental practice.

Used to help people who snore and to diagnose and treat people suffering from obstructive sleep apnea, dental sleep medicine really works and is much less invasive than other types of treatments used for OSA.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Snoring

While snoring is a sign of OSA, a condition that causes a person to stop breathing while sleeping, people who snore don’t always have obstructive sleep apnea.

This and other tools for OSA diagnosis are just a few of the things you will learn when you work with DSM Solutions.

Dental Sleep Medicine Training

If you have considered offering dental sleep medicine training but were turned off by what you found online, check out DSM Solutions.

The best dental sleep medicine training company on the planet offers sleep apnea solutions for dentists and dental teams, not just the dentist. Everyone will learn everything there is to know about diagnosing and treating mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea.

What is Dental Sleep Medicine Training?

According to the highly qualified team from DSM Solutions, dental sleep medicine training is designed to help patients, and potential ones, combat obstructive sleep apnea. While there is no cure, people with OSA see relief using oral appliance therapy along with other types of solutions that don’t include surgery.

DSM Solutions explains that surgery is a solution for obstructive sleep apnea. However, it is only a last resort. There are other treatments and techniques that work wonders for OSA.

CPAP Therapy for OSA

Most people have heard of CPAP therapy. If you haven’t it is the most common solution for obstructive sleep apnea.

CPAP therapy uses a hose that is connected to a machine. That hose is also connected to a mask that you keep on your mouth and nose throughout the night. CPAP therapy forces air through the airways keeping them open. This allows people with OSA to breathe freely without gasping for breath.

As you can imagine it does take some getting used to. Sadly, some people with OSA never get used to CPAP therapy and stop using the machine.

Dental Sleep Medicine Works

Dental sleep medicine works and is the gentle way to help people who suffer from OSA. Adding it to your list of dental services helps you help more people. Isn’t that why you became a dentist in the first place?

Dental Sleep Medicine Helps People Cope

Posted on Categories Dental Sleep Medicine, News Author By Lois

With dental sleep medicine training from DSM Solutions, you can open your practice up to an entirely new group of people. Best of all, not every dentist is providing patients with dental sleep medicine.

Most dental practitioners become dentists because they feel the need to help people. As one of those dentists, you are probably always looking for new ways to do just that.

What is Dental Sleep Medicine Training?

Dental sleep medicine training provides dentists and their teams with all of the tools needed to diagnose and treat mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea. Using less intrusive methods, it helps the patient get a better night’s sleep using solutions such as oral appliance therapy.

What is Obstructive Sleep Apnea?

Just to refresh your mind, as you will find everything you need to know in the DSM Solutions Blog, obstructive sleep apnea, or OSA is a condition that stops someone from breathing while they are sleeping. Because the back of the throat relaxes, for whatever reason, people gasp for breath waking up and going back to sleep 100s of times every night.

During your training, you will also learn these OSA risk factors and more.

  • Obesity, however not all overweight people have OSA and vice versa
  • Large neck size men 18” or more women 16” or more
  • Family history
  • Hypothyroidism
  • Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
  • Certain over the counter and prescription medications
  • Diabetes
  • Narrow airways
  • Tonsils and adenoid enlargement
  • High blood pressure
  • Chronic nasal congestion
  • Smoking
  • Heavy alcohol use
  • Asthma
  • Being a man

Solutions for OSA

While CPAP therapy is the most common treatment, something else that you will learn in your dental sleep medicine training program, it isn’t the only way to combat OSA.

With CPAP being the most common, surgery is the last resort. Some people report no change a few months after OSA surgery having to go back to CPAP therapy and heavy prescription medications.

Oral appliance therapy on the other hand is an incredible way to help your patients get a good night sleep. Oral appliance therapy devices help keep the airways open and are designed for each patient.

During your DSM solutions training, you will learn how to diagnose, treat, and uncover the best oral appliance device along with other therapies that don’t involve surgery.

If you follow the DSM Solutions Blog, you will recall that OSA, short for obstructive sleep apnea, is a condition that affects billions of people all over the world. Here in the US millions of people are affected. The sad thing is some aren’t even aware they have OSA.

OSA causes the back of the throat to collapse or relax while sleeping. This makes it impossible for the sufferer to breathe.

People who have OSA also experience the following symptoms:

  • Loud Snoring
  • Witnessed Breathing Cessation
  • Insomnia
  • Problems Staying Awake During the Day
  • Low Libido
  • Moodiness
  • Headaches
  • Dry Mouth

People at Risk

You could have OSA if you are:

  • Obese
  • Male
  • Postmenopausal
  • On Certain Medications
  • Over 65
  • A Heavy Smoker or Drinker

People who still have tonsils and adenoids, including children, and people who have a large neck, men over 18” and women over 16” are in the high-risk category for obstructive sleep apnea.

With dental sleep medicine, training you will be able to identify the signs and symptoms of OSA and learn how to treat the disorder as well.

What is DSM Training for OSA?

Dental sleep medicine training teaches dental practices, doctors and the entire team. Everyone will learn how to diagnose and treat mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea.

OSA or obstructive sleep apnea is a condition that relaxes the back of the throat up to thirty times an hour or hundreds of times a night. Because the throat relaxes, the person can’t breathe waking up abruptly before falling back to a restless sleep.

While there is no one reason people suffer from OSA, people who are overweight, middle aged, post menopausal, men or people with large neck sizes are in the high-risk category. People who have a family history of obstructive sleep apnea, people with tonsils and adenoids, and people who take certain over the counter and prescription medications are also prone to OSA.

How Dental Sleep Medicine Training Works

According to the experts from DSM Solutions, dental sleep training works because the program teaches the whole team, not just the doctor or doctors. The courses are custom made and designed for each practice and include everything you and your team need to diagnose and treat OSA with dental sleep medicine. These hands on training courses even include training for billing and selling.
