SleepTech Talk

This week the STT crew meets Jason Tierney, founder of Transform Dental Sleep.

For nearly 20 years, Jason Tierney has contributed to the fields of Dental Sleep Medicine and TMD treatment. From co-developing widely used oral appliances and countless continuing education events to growing and building teams with a mix of innovative solutions and best practices, Jason has seen the field of sleep medicine become what it is today. He’s seen so much that he actually wrote the book on it. Literally. His new book is entitled, Transform Dental Sleep.

Apart from writing books and transforming dental sleep medicine, Jason was also on Wheel of Fortune, has run several ultramarathons, and is obsessed with pugs. Listen in as the crew talks with Jason about dental sleep and some of his other interests.

The SleepTech Talk Team back together again! (The summer has been rough on our schedules). On this week's episode we learn some things that we will be discussing on future episodes and revisit a few things we have learned from some of our most recent guests. 

Join us for this round table of sleep talk! 

It's inventors week on SleepTech Talk with Dr. William Noah! 

Dr Noah has invented a revolutionary device to make CPAP more comfortable for patients and increase adherence. The V-Com, which softens peak inspiratory flow, makes starting CPAP easier and faster. V-Com is an accessory added between the CPAP mask and the CPAP hose that is specifically engineered to reduce inspiratory pressure and flow to provide comfort with minimal to no reduction in expiratory pressure (EPAP). Since V-Com has minimal effect on EPAP, there is minimal effect on therapy. After weeks or months when the patient can easily tolerate the peak flow and inspiratory pressure of PAP therapy, the V-Com can be removed from the circuit.

Join us as we learn more about this new tool that can help our patients tolerate PAP therapy and improve overall adherence!
