About the Course

This is the third course in a 3-part continuing education series designed specifically for dental professionals. Building on the foundations of sleep science from Part 1 and the screening and diagnostic skills from Part 2, this course covers the full treatment landscape for sleep-disordered breathing — and the collaborative care model that makes it all work. By the end of this course, you'll understand how CPAP, oral appliance therapy, orofacial myofunctional therapy, and emerging technologies fit into a personalized treatment plan — and how your role as a dental professional is central to long-term patient success.
