- Abstract
The implications of dental medicine in sleep disorders include quite few diseases. By the nature of his profession, the stomatologist may be the first to trace the possible modifications produced at the level of the oral cavity and of the upper aerial ducts of the patient. The role of dental medicine in solving the problems of sleep becomes increasingly important, the more so in the management of snoring and of mild and moderate OSA. The stomatologist may diagnose OSA, he may send the patient to have his disease evaluated and assist its management.
