Dental Sleep Medicine It’s a Wonderful Thing

Posted on Categories Dental Sleep Medicine, News Author By Lois

If your dental practice hasn’t added any new products or services talk to DSM Solutions. DSM Solutions offers dental sleep medicine for practices and everyone on the team.

DSM is an amazing service. It is an amazing service that most dentists are probably not offering in your area.

Dental Sleep Medicine is Incredible

When you add DSM to your menu of services you are opening yourself up to an entirely new demographic.

That new demographic could also bring you patients interested in your dental services. What that means for you is a new way to invite patients to your dental practice.

While some DSM patients may already have a dentist some may not be happy or are interested in seeing someone new.

That makes it the perfect opportunity to, “pitch,” your dental products and services. It really is a win win for the patient and the doctor.

What is DSM Training Anyway?

Dental sleep medicine is a remarkable treatment that enables people to get a better nights rest. DSM helps with snoring and other sleeping disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea.

If you follow this blog you will recall that sleeping disorders, such as OSA cause the person suffering to wake up to 30 times every hour. As you can imagine that would cause some issues.

Obstructive sleep apnea will make you tired during the day, but that’s not all. In addition obstructive sleep apnea or OSA will also cause a person to stop breathing while sleeping. The constant cessation in breathing is hard on the brain and the body.

If left untreated OSA can lead to serious side effects such as heart disease. If left untreated it can even cause a stroke. That is what makes dental sleep medicine such a remarkable treatment.

Dental Care Technology and DSM Solutions

Posted on Categories Uncategorized Author By Lois

Dental care is much different than it used to be. 100 years ago no one would have ever thought it was possible to change the color much less the shape of the smile.

Fast forward to 2021 and dental care is much more than teeth and gums.

These days dental care technology and DSM Solutions is raising the bar with dental products and services that were unheard of in the past.

The Future of Dental Care Technology

If what has gone on in the past twenty years is any indication the dental world will continue to grow by leaps and bounds. There is no question about it.

From dental implants to gummy smile lifts there is no stopping the future of dental technology. Consequently, the dental world is now seeing further advancements with dental sleep medicine.

Dental Sleep Medicine and Dental Care

Dental sleep medicine is used for people who snore and for people suffering from mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea.

Knowing how to diagnose and treat patients is an excellent way to help. Especially your existing patients and people who would never have scheduled an appointment.

Offering dental sleep medicine to patients and potential ones is an excellent way to grown your patient base as well.

Oral Appliance Therapy and Dental Sleep Medicine

Oral appliance and splint therapy is a huge part of dental sleep medicine. Consequently, you and your team will learn how to diagnose obstructive sleep apnea, or OSA and also learn the best way to treat it.

During your training sessions with DSM Solutions you will also learn how to bill correctly. The experts who have invested years into dental sleep medicine will also show you how to implement this amazing service into your dental practice.

Snoring and Dental Sleep Medicine

Snoring, while it is a major sign of OSA, isn’t always associated with the disorder. In fact, some people who have obstructive sleep apnea may not snore at all. DSM Solutions explains that chronic snorers can also benefit from oral appliance therapy and dental sleep medicine as people who snore also have relaxed throat muscles.

If you have ever shared a bed, or a household with loud snorers, you will know how annoying it is.

With that being said, it is just as annoying and downright dangerous for the person who snores every time he or she falls asleep. Thankfully, you and your dental practice can help.

Dental Care and Sleep Medicine for Your Practice

If you would like to help more people and add and incredible service to your roster, call or send a direct message and talk to a consultant from DSM Solutions today.

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.
