Dr. Jamison Spencer joins Jason and Alan to talk about sleep medicine and TMD treatment in the dental office. Once you've learned some things about sleep apnea you come to see the symptoms and consequences in LOTS of your patients. Bruxism, gastric reflux, TMD and lots of other conditions are correlated with sleep apnea. Dentists are quickly becoming the most likely screeners for this potential deadly condition, and Dr. Jamison Spencer is one of the most sought after lecturers on the subject. Dr. Spencer joins Jason and Alan to explain how to incorporate this treatment into your practice, what symptoms to screen, what gadgets NOT to buy and what diagnoses you shouldn't be making! Dr. Spencer's online study club, "The Spencer Study Club" is only open for enrollment a couple times per year, but he's made it available to the listeners of the Dental Hacks podcast!
