DESCRIPTION:
Mandibular advancement devices (MADs) introduced dentists to the world of sleep and airway. As more information comes to light about the causes of sleep disease and airway issues, dentists need to understand how to correctly identify and diagnose patients who are suffering from these debilitating issues and develop appropriate treatment devices and options to assist in their management, improvement, and possible elimination. In addition to airway stabilization with appliances, numerous additional therapies have been shown to improve outcomes and should be understood, discussed, and possibly offered by dentists to patients.

DESCRIPTION:
The tongue plays a key role in growth, development, and function. Ankyloglossia (tongue-tie) can lead to compensatory behavior, such as snoring, inability to breathe through the nose, underdevelopment of the midface, crowding of teeth, and TMD. Untreated, it can lead to more serious medical conditions, including digestive issues and sleep apnea. Every dentist should be trained to recognize signs and symptoms of tongue-tie and act as the quarterback in resolving this condition with the patient.
