- 患者満足度を高める：睡眠衛生指導を取り入れましょう
The treatment of sleep apnea involves multiple healthcare disciplines, and dentistry now plays an indispensable role. Oral appliance (OA) therapy is an effective option, but its efficacy varies among patients, making appropriate case selection essential. Even in suitable candidates, treatment outcomes decline without proper titration. The goal is not simply to fabricate an OA, but to improve sleep quality. To achieve this, it is important for all staff to deepen their understanding of sleep medicine and provide appropriate guidance, which ultimately enhances patient satisfaction.

睡眠歯科を始めましょう！
〜睡眠生理・睡眠時無呼吸・口腔内装置〜
- Understand the Disease! Pathophysiology of Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Sleep Test
- Understand the Treatment! Oral Appliance Therapy and CPAP Therapy
- Visualizing the Airway! Live Demonstration of Self-Endoscopy by Lecturer
- 病気を知ろう！睡眠時無呼吸の病態・睡眠検査
- 治療を知ろう！口腔内装置・CPAP療法
- 気道を見える化！セルフ内視鏡ライブデモンストレーション
With an estimated 22 million potential patients, the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea necessitates collaboration between medical and dental professionals. This approach requires not only knowledge of oral appliance therary provided by dentists but also expertise in medical sleep studies (PSG) and medical treatment methods (CPAP therapy). Furthermore, evaluating the “airway”―the site where apnea occurs―is critically important. Through engaging and accessible lectures featuring actual clinical videos and live demonstrations, we will guide you into the “blue ocean” of sleep dentistry.

自宅で検査！見える化された睡眠時ブラキシズムとその治療
- 数値で知る！あなたの睡眠中の状況あれこれ。
- 一工夫で変わる！口腔内装置の材料や咬合付与による違いとは？
- Onlyではない⁈口腔内装置以外の治療とは？
臨床の場で遭遇している可能性が高い睡眠時ブラキシズムですが、患者自身が気づいていないケースが散見されます。そこで、まずは自宅検査で睡眠中の状態を数値化し、病態を「見える化」することが重要となります。治療としては、口腔内装置が主になりがちですが、装置だけではなく行動変容や生活習慣の改善といった多角的なアプローチについても紹介し、明日からの臨床に活かせる具体的な工夫をお伝えしたいと思います。
