For Physicians: Referring Patients | Sleep Practitioner in Gahanna, OH

At Sweet Dreams Appliances, we offer comprehensive and personalized care for patients with sleep apnea. Guided by the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine (AADSM) protocols and adhering strictly to the standards set by the Ohio Medical Board, we ensure each patient receives the highest quality treatment tailored to their specific needs.

Collaborative Care for Optimal Outcomes

We value the collaborative relationship with referring physicians and believe in keeping you informed every step of the way. After a patient is referred to us by their sleep doctor or primary care physician, we communicate consistently by sending follow-up letters outlining their progress and treatment adjustments. This ensures you stay updated and involved in your patient’s care journey.

Insurance and High-Quality Appliances

As participating providers with Medicare, Tricare, and Oscar, we work directly with all major medical insurance plans to make our services accessible to your patients. Our commitment to quality means using only the best appliances tailored to each individual’s needs. We believe in personalized care and are not a “one size fits all” clinic.

Continuous Learning and Patient Education

We pride ourselves on our commitment to continuing education in sleep apnea and oral appliance therapy. Our team regularly engages with the latest research and attends all relevant continuing education courses to stay at the forefront of sleep medicine. We also prioritize educating patients on adjunct treatment options, such as bed wedges, nasal cones, sleep masks, and lifestyle changes like diet and proper sleep hygiene, to enhance their treatment outcomes.

Honest and Patient-Centric Approach

We are dedicated to providing honest, patient-centric care. Suppose we determine that oral appliance therapy may not be the best option for a patient. In that case, we communicate this transparently and discuss alternative treatments, including CPAP therapy, which remains the gold standard for sleep apnea treatment.

Educational Opportunities for Physicians

Our experienced owner and one of our sleep dentists, Dr. Rosenthal, is passionate about sharing knowledge and resources. We offer educational sessions, including “lunch and learn” events, to help you and your team better understand oral appliance therapy and how it can benefit your patients. Please email us at info@sweetdreamsappliances.com to schedule sessions.

Referral Information

When referring a patient to our office, please provide a copy of the patient’s Diagnostic Sleep Study and a prescription. This ensures that we have all the necessary information to begin their treatment promptly and effectively.

Thank you for considering Sweet Dreams Appliances as a trusted partner in your patient’s sleep health. We look forward to working together to improve the quality of life for those with sleep apnea.
