Sleep Better South Carolina understands the frustration that you may be feeling if a patient is unable to tolerate their CPAP, are non compliant, or flat out refuse a CPAP, or are not good candidates for the Inspire procedure. We are here for you. What you can expect from our office:

    1. We follow AADSM protocol for treating sleep apnea as well as the South Carolina Medical Board.
    2. We will always send follow up letters so you can follow along with your patient’s treatment.
    3. We will always require a referral from your patient’s sleep doctor or primary care doctor.
    4. We are participating providers with Medicare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna and Tricare. We work with and DIRECTLY bill all major medical insurance plans.
    5. We always use the highest quality appliances. We are not a one size fits all office!
    6. We are committed to continuing education for sleep apnea, oral appliance therapy and are constantly challenging ourselves to reading the latest studies and attending various sleep Continuing Education courses.
    7. We are not afraid to tell a patient that Oral appliance therapy may not work for them based on our findings with the patient.
    8. We educate patients on the adjunct treatment options such as bed wedges, nasal cones/strips, mouth taping, sleep masks, diet/weight loss, proper vitamin levels and proper sleep hygiene.
    9. We continue to see great results with the use of oral appliances when performing efficacy sleep tests on our patients in treatment.

Dr. Blalock, our owner and our sleep dentist enjoys meeting with physicians and their team to educate on Oral Device Therapy and how we can be a resource for you and your patients.

If this is something you feel will benefit your office and would like to schedule a lunch and learn, or breakfast and learn,  please call the office to schedule.
