    Michael Cowen
    Michael Cowen, CEO, and Founder of Awaken2Sleep started his journey in sleep medicine in 2003, performing in-lab sleep studies as a pediatric sleep technician at Loma Linda Children’s Hospital in Southern California. Five years later, this training and experience empowered him to save his infant daughter’s life from Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), a leading cause of SIDS in infants. After recognizing his calling to passionately assist others in helping their patients, Michael became an expert in the Business of Sleep Medicine, working with physicians, building sleep centers, CPAP technology, and home sleep tests. In 2015, he founded Awaken2Sleep, which empowers growth-minded dental practices to level up with proven dental sleep medicine coaching, team training, and sleep testing.

  • How Top-Performing Dental Practices Screen Sleep Patients with Chad Wooters
    Sep 4 2024

    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:

    1. Medical history
    2. Subjective feedback
    3. Screening forms
    4. Intra-oral signs
    5. Internal marketing
    6. 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
