An Interdisciplinary Approach

SomnoMed is committed to an interdisciplinary approach to obstructive sleep apnea and snoring. We believe that with the combined efforts of dental and medical professionals, OSA and snoring will be more efficiently diagnosed and effectively treated.

As a sleep and respiratory specialist we would like to thank you for your interest in our website and take this time to explain our company. At SomnoMed we have brought together specialists such as you, along with family doctors and dentists to form a team dedicated to the detection, diagnosis and treatment OSA

General Practitioners

The dangers of obstructive sleep apnea and snoring are increasingly becoming well known to the general public. With this awareness comes an interest from potential sufferers and you, as the general practitioner, need to be equipped with the necessary knowledge, screening tools and support to help deal with this serious condition. As the gatekeeper of family health most of these patients will approach you first regarding their obstructive sleep apnea and snoring. You must then decide to personally treat, refer to a specialist for a sleep study or send them to a dentist to have a mandibular advancement splint fitted.

SomnoMed has pioneered a interdisciplinary medical/dental approach to obstructive sleep apnea and snoring. Through our screening procedures SomnoMed dentists and medical general practitioners are now identifying, diagnosing, triaging and treating patients suffering from OSA and snoring. We invite you to contact us for additional information on the subjects of obstructive sleep apnea and snoring.

Sleep Centres

SomnoMed is actively seeking sleep centers and sleep laboratories throughout Australia that would like to receive referrals. Our patient screening procedures are identifying many potential OSA sufferers who require a sleep study conducted under the supervision of a qualified sleep or respiratory physician.
