Airway and Implant Dentistry

“How can someone think those forces are going to naturally go away, when the body’s most number one important thing…is oxygen,” Dr. Jerry Hu, DDS, AFAAID Sleep Apnea specialist, Dr. Jerry Hu talks with our AAID Podcast hosts, Dr. Danny Domingue and Dr. Justin Moody about the important check-up every dentist should be incorporating into their practices. Dentists can be one of the first doctors to spot sleep disorders among patients. In fact, most physician’s offices don’t regularly ask their patients about their sleep habits. This can be a fatal mistake.  “As dentists, we can be more empowered to make a difference,” says Hu. Dr. Hu has obtained his Diplomate status in several sleep disorder associations and is ready to give you all of his knowledge on how you can become more aware of this issue in your patients. You can catch Dr. Hu in person at the AAID Annual Conference October 23 through 26 at the Aria Resort and Casino in Las Vegas.
