Follow on Google News | Tulsa Dentist Terry R. Bennett Earns Craniofacial Dental Sleep Medicine CertificationDr. Terry Bennett helps people who suffer from Snoring and Sleep Apnea and is the only dentist in NE Oklahoma that is board-certified in Dental Sleep Medicine.
"The ABCP is committed to assisting the public by certifying dentists who successfully demonstrate their knowledge of the relationship between craniofacial pain and sleep-disordered breathing. Earning Diplomate, American Board of Craniofacial Pain - Craniofacial Dental Sleep Medicine status is an important professional achievement that signifies to patients plus dental, medical, and other health professionals that the dentist has met the high standards of care set forth by the ABCP." According to the National Institutes of Health, 50-70 million Americans suffer from chronic sleep disorders. However, as many as 80% of patients who suffer from sleep disorders are believed to be undiagnosed. This puts them at significantly increased risk of heart attack, stroke, diabetes, and workplace accidents and injuries. The "Diplomate, American Board of Craniofacial Pain - Craniofacial Dental Sleep Medicine" certification was created by the ABCP in recognition of the fact that a) Dental Sleep Medicine is encompassed within Craniofacial Pain practice and, b) dentists are important members of the sleep disordered breathing patient care team. It is also consistent with scientific literature, which is increasingly documenting the co-existence of sleep-disordered breathing and TMJ disorders. Dr. Bennett, a Tulsa dentist specializing in dental sleep medicine, whose practice is located at 1616 S. Denver Ave., Tulsa, OK, is among the first dentists in the country to be certified in Craniofacial Dental Sleep Medicine by the ABCP. Established in 1985 and headquartered in Reston, VA, the ABCP is an independent, nonprofit whose purpose is to conduct certification examinations in the field of Craniofacial Pain and its related disciplines.The ABCP adheres to the American Dental Association Principles of Ethics and Code of Professional Conduct, and advises all Diplomates to follow this code and their state or legal regulatory agency requirements, when advertising their status.
