Why West Richland Dental joined the Sleep Better Northwest Team

Posted on November 8, 2016 by Dr. Erin Elliott

Sleep dentistry has long been a service that we knew was being unmet in our very busy general dentistry office. On average, we see over 50 patients a day in hygiene alone, with likely over half of those patients in need of oral airway evaluation and screening for snoring and sleep apnea. It has been a truly eye-opening experience, being able to recognize and help so many people in need. In the short period of time that we have implemented Dental Sleep Medicine into our practice, we have had the opportunity to effect dramatic improvements in the lives of many patients. Being a part of Sleep better Northwest was a decision we made based upon our long-standing dedication to the highest standards in diagnosis and treatment options. Our partnership with Sleep Better Northwest helps bridge the gap in the important relationship between dentistry and sleep related issues. We look forward to continuing our dedication to education and providing the highest quality health care to the Tri-city community and beyond.
