Stop Doing Occlusal Guards - Sleep Studies First with Dr. Erin Elliot
In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Elliott, owner and partner at Post Falls Family Dental & Sleep Better Northwest in Northern Idaho. Dr. Elliott is a passionate advocate for dental sleep medicine, specializing in treating snoring and sleep apnea. With years of experience, he has helped countless patients improve their health by addressing the root causes of their sleep issues.
The discussion centers on the shift from traditional occlusal guards to prioritizing sleep studies when addressing dental issues related to bruxism and airway obstruction. Dr. Elliott explains why sleep studies are crucial in identifying and treating underlying conditions like sleep apnea, which are often missed when using occlusal guards alone. Learn how incorporating sleep medicine into your practice not only transforms patient care but also opens up new opportunities for success and growth.
