Sleep-Related Breathing Disorders
The American Dental Association and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recognizes that pediatric dentists are in a unique position to identify those children at greatest risks for Sleep-Related Breathing Disorders and Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). For instance, does your child seem well-rested? Do they snore daily? Are they exhibiting problems at school? Is bedwetting still an issue? If your child experiences any of these symptoms, we encourage you to click on the link below to take the Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire (PSQ). You can print and fill this out and bring it with you to your child’s examination appointment. Based on your child’s clinical findings and their PSQ score, Dr. Rozas and her associates will give you more information regarding your child’s risk and find the right options for treatment of OSA and sleep-realted breathing disorders.
