Udforsker dental søvnmedicin

Dental søvnmedicin er et område af tandlægepraksis, der fokuserer på brugen af ​​orale apparater til behandling af søvnforstyrret vejrtrækning, herunder snorken og obstruktiv søvnapnø (OSA). Som en del af et tværfagligt team opfordrer vi tandlæger og søvnlæger til at arbejde sammen i behandlingen af ​​de patienter, der får ordineret et oralt apparat.

 

Forskning viser gentagne gange, at dårlig søvnkvalitet påvirker livskvaliteten. Hos SomnoMed® er vi overbevist om, at tandlæger kan have en indflydelse på patienternes søvnkvalitet ved at behandle deres OSA med et SomnoDent oralt apparat.

Dentist Preforming Intraoral Scan

Fordele ved digital scanning i tandlægepraksis

SomnoMed®-serien af ​​orale apparater til behandling af OSA inkorporerer den nyeste, mest avancerede teknologi inden for digitalt design og fremstilling for at give den ultimative pasform og komfort.

For at udbydere af tandsøvn kan drage fordel af denne teknologi, er intraoral scanning for at fange patientens indtryk ved at blive afgørende.

Selvom intraoral scanning er en relativt ny innovation inden for Britisk?? tandpleje, viser den sig meget nyttig i dental søvnmedicin. Patienter med en følsom gaberefleks behøver ikke længere at lide af aftryksbakker og materiale, og det giver en problemfri levering til laboratoriet.

SomnoDent®-enheder i Storbritannien?? er kompatible med scanninger af Trios, iTero, Carestream, 3M True Definition og mere.

Patient stories

Michael’s story 

“I have been using my Somnomed® device for about two years now. It has completely improved the quality of sleep that I get and consequently certain aspects of my life for the better.

On the rare occasion that I forget to put it in the device my sleep deteriorates immediately. It’s invaluable.” Read more

Liz’s story

“Having suffered jaw and tooth pain over several months and following several appointments with my GP and regular dentist to no avail, I asked April (dentist) if she could give me a second opinion. After careful consultation April suggested that sleep apnoea and teeth grinding might be behind the issues and recommended a Somnomed® device to wear at night. Read more

Simon’s story

“My name is Simon Wilsdon I am a general dentist in York with a special interest in dental sleep medicine. Over several years I have experienced mild sleep apnoea and, unfortunately for my wife, loud snoring. I have tried several different mandibular advancement devices over the years. These have given initial improvement but nothing long lasting and were uncomfortable over time. After investigating different options, I decided to give the new SomnoMed® Avant™ appliance a try.

Mohammed’s story

Mohammed was diagnosed with Severe Sleep Apnoea in 2018.

“For the first year after my diagnosis, I had a CPAP machine in the home, but I really struggled with it, due to the anxiety of the mask being on my face all night. When I saw my Sleep Consultant, I was advised that I should not drive, and my driving license has now been revoked for more than 2 years. I have a family at home, with four children, so having no driving license has really affected our day-to-day lives. Little things like food shopping and trips out are much more difficult. Read more

Like many people, l became aware that l was snoring during the night and feeling tired in the morning. This led me down the route of seeing my GP who felt l may have obstructive sleep apnoea and referred me to the hospital for further tests. There, l was given the Epworth Sleep Study questionnaire to complete which indicated l had daytime sleepiness but not severely. However further investigation was necessary and an overnight hospital stay was arranged where l had a sleep study conducted. Read more
