Sleep Apnea Doctor

            Dr. Mark Allan Padolsky is a sleep apnea doctor who has been involved with temporomandibular joint disorders (TMJ) and sleep apnea treatment for over a decade. He is a holistic dentist given the fact that he often screens patients for many related medical problems that affect the teeth and mouth. Dr. Padolsky practices with the Atlanta Dental Group PC in Atlanta, Georgia and has given lectures on these topics and enjoys helping patients with these problems.

          This sleep apnea doctor constructs several different types of dental appliances for obstructive sleep apnea. Most of them pull the lower jaw forward to prevent the tongue from falling back into the throat and blocking the patient's airway. He also often suggests several supportive methods to assist in controlling this disorder in addition to the dental sleep apnea device therapy.

          A sleep apnea doctor should know which cases to treat and which to avoid. There are several different types of sleep apnea and not all respond well to dental sleep apnea treatment. This is why it is very important for the dentist to be able to work with the treating physician. Unfortunately, many physicians are not familiar with dental treatment and sadly, do not refer to dentists who can help.

         All of the dentists at the Atlanta Dental Group PC are dedicated to their patients' good health and well being. They offer comprehensive General, Cosmetic and Implant Dentistry including sleep apnea appliance therapy. You are welcome to join our family of patients. If you are interested in a dental device for sleep apnea and would like to consult with our sleep apnea doctor, Dr. Mark Allan Padolsky, call 404-874-7428.
