Virtual or phone consults for sleep apnea and periodontal (gum) treatment assessment. We also can make available online some of the most effective home care products with a customized home therapy schedule.
We have recently collaborated with Dr. Dennis Godby, a well-respected Naturopathic Doctor who has helped our family physically function at a higher level through natural supplements.
Dr Godby wants to avail himself to our patients through online consultation to guide you and make specific more natural recommendations for any particular medical conditions, including sleep disorders.
We want you to realize that working seriously, with us on your team, to have healthy non bleeding gums will lessen your chance of a stroke or heart attack by 300%.
The connectivity between gum disease and heart disease is medically and clinically undeniable.
While attending a Basic Life Support CPR class I was very motivated, more than I ever have, to do what I can as a dentist to help my patients to better cardiovascular health, particularly after seeing so many devastating cases of unexpected cardiac arrest and heart attacks.
If you have stubborn gum problems, we create some custom perio trays that are worn at home for ten minutes a day at various intervals that bathe your inflamed gums with gels that eliminate harmful bacteria and at the same time make your teeth whiter an your breath fresher.
Pair your health gums with a good night sleep and you could see a change in your health and wellbeing that will be phenomenal and those around you will notice the change.
The pandemic has really opened all our eyes to the value of good health and how devastating micro-organisms can be, especially if our own body is weakened and our immune system is overworked dealing with other diseases. In the case of Covid 19, only 15% of those infected have severe symptoms and most of those have weakened or underlying conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, and high blood pressure. That means most people who have healthy blood vessels, hearts, brains, lungs, and organs aren't usually devastated when they contract a dangerous virus or bacteria because their natural immune system can work effectively to combat and heal.
One way you can help heal and reverse damage already done to your heart and organs is to make sure they are nourished every night with adequate oxygen. Studies are very clear that a person who is deprived of proper oxygen each night due to a condition called sleep apnea, can become riddled with diseases that decrease the quality and length of their life significantly. Statistics also show that when a person with sleep apnea is treated, their organs start healing, they take less medications, and they on average live six to eight years longer. That is amazing!
One problem, however, is that a majority of the population live with undiagnosed sleep apnea and therefore do not link so many of their health problems to it, or they are in denial that they have a problem despite all the physical mental and emotional signs.
We, as your trained dental providers, can truly help you determine if you may be inflicted by this deadly disease. There are clinical signs and symptoms we see every day that are red flags.
We now can send you a home sleep test that is very easy, safe and economical that you can do in the comfort of your own home. The data is immediately sent to a certified sleep doctor to diagnose any detrimental conditions and provide suggested treatment options. All interactions you have with us and the medical doctor can be done online, all at a fraction of the cost of going to the doctor's office and getting a sleep study in a sleep facility.
Here is some more good news...Most cases of mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea, or OSA, can be treated very effectively with an affordable, easy-to-wear oral appliance that can be delivered through our office. As an added plus, it can improve your snoring and most likely improve your sleeping effectiveness so you won't feel as tired each day and your mind will feel clearer. If you currently are being treated with a c-pap machine, and are having difficulty wearing it, an oral appliance is an alternative. Fitting of the appliance requires some simple records and just a few non-invasive appointments. Personally, I have worn an appliance for several years and it is super comfortable and easy.
The cost of an adjustable FDA approved sleep apnea appliance usually costs between $3,000 and $6,000. Many medical insurance plans will cover the appliance, but it is more complex to submit than dental insurance. We have decided to lower the cost of the appliance to avoid the medical billing challenges to $1,950 or $380/month for 6 months.
Also, we are excited to have recently collaborated with Dr. Dennis Godby, a well-respected Naturopathic doctor who has helped our family physically function at a higher level through natural treatment and supplements. He wants to avail himself to our patients through online consultation to guide you and make specific more natural recommendations for any particular medical conditions, including sleep disorders. The appliances are very durable and only require some basic maintenance.
You are so worth it! Give us a call today and get started on a good night's sleep!
