Last year Dr. Allman discussed the signs and symptoms of OSA and the importance of identifying likely sufferers. Medical literature regarding the dangerous effects of OSA continues to bolster the importance of dentistry’s role in identifying, referring and co-managing OSA patients.
Course fee: $49.00
This year we’ll define oral appliance therapy protocol using the medical model as our guide. Dr. Allman will discuss sequencing and managing orthopedic relationships, dental pathologies, snoring and OSA. When should we treat both and does it really matter?
While follow-up documentation is essential for therapeutic success, it can be confusing. Documentation strategies via follow-up questionnaires for TMD, snoring, OSA and Complex dental patients will also be presented.
Learning objectives:
Learn the differences between the OSA, TMD and Complex patients to avoid diagnostic and treatment frustration.
Clarify referral and dental/medical treatment planning for OSA, TMD and COMPLEX patients.
Dr. Allman will present three different questionnaire forms for following the progress of OSA, TMD and COMPLEX patients.
