SUMMARY:Sleep Disordered Breathing and Its Implications for Dentistry
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Dr. Paul McLornan\nSponsored by Thayer Dental Lab\nCOURSE DESCRIPTION \nThere is a growing body of scientific evidence that associates Sleep Disordered Breathing (SDB) with Bruxism\, GERD and TMD. The multiple health consequences of untreated SDB have long been known and now include an increased risk of developing and dying from certain forms of cancer. Approximately 80% of all SDB breathing patients are undiagnosed and hence untreated. Putting together these facts in 2016 Dr McLornan believes we as dentists can choose to ignore SDB in our patients but it will not ignore our patient’s overall health\, their dentitions nor our dentistry. We must screen our patients for SDB. During this presentation we will discuss \n1.) What is SDB? \n2.) The health consequences of untreated SDB \n3.) How our medical colleagues are currently diagnosing and treating SDB \n4.) SDB in children \n5.) The associations between SDB and Bruxism\, TMD and GERD \n6.) A suggested screening protocol for SDB in the dental office \n7.) How to build and maintain physician referrals \n8.) How to get paid for treating SDB with Mandibular Repositioning Devices. \nTHE SPEAKER \nDr. Paul McLornan is a board certified Prosthodontist in private practice in San Antonio\, Texas. He is also an assistant professor at the University of Texas Health Science Center San Antonio (UTHSCSA) Dental School. He is a member of the graduate faculty of the UTHSCSA Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences\, where he serves as a research adviser to a number of OSA related studies. Dr. McLornan obtained his dental degree from Queens University\, Belfast and his specialty certificate in Prosthodontics from UTHSCSA. The treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) using oral appliances was the subject of his master’s of science research project during his residency and has been a special interest of his since. Dr. McLornan has lectured extensively at local\, national\, and international dental meetings and study clubs. He is on the teaching faculty of the Dental Institute of Sleep Medicine and is a member of the ADA’s Committee on Sleep Related Breathing Disorders. He is a Diplomate of the American Board of Prosthodontics and a Fellow of the American College of Prosthodontists. He is also a member of the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine\, the American Academy of Sleep Medicine and the American Equilibration Society.
