Listen "2311: The Hidden Face of Sleep Apnea and What Dentists Can Do"
Episode Synopsis
On today's episode, Dr. Mark Costes reconnects with longtime friend and dental sleep medicine expert Dr. Erin Elliott. Broadcasting from Thrive Live in Las Vegas, the two dive into a lively and powerful discussion about the lesser-known signs of sleep apnea, particularly in young, fit women. Dr. Elliott shares how anatomical and physiological factors—like a scalloped tongue or early morning wake-ups—often point to overlooked sleep disorders that dentists are uniquely positioned to detect. They also discuss the emotional impact of restoring quality sleep to patients and families, how dental professionals can start screening today, and why "mild" sleep apnea isn't mild at all. Plus, you'll hear about Erin's passion for pickleball, her love for clinical practice, and why she's not planning to slow down anytime soon.
