How Top-Performing Dental Practices Screen Sleep Patients with Chad Wooters
Manage episode 443235782 series 3364466
Webinar description:
A trained dental team should be screening 70% of their patients – or more – for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
For every 10 patients you see you should have 7 conversations about airway and sleep apnea. When practices use a combination of:
- Medical history
- Subjective feedback
- Screening forms
- Intra-oral signs
- Internal marketing
- Verbiage skills
Over 33% of patients will need a sleep test.
- How do you screen your patients?
- What verbiage helps get people to test?
- When do you refer out for a PSG?
Navigating these questions and having clear workflows will help your team create tremendous awareness in your practice.
By the end of this session, you will:
- Define the scope of screening for dental professionals and SRBDs
- Discuss key verbiage for screening SRBDs and OSA
- Identify signs of OSA for dental patients
- Explore patient communication tactics for better outcomes
