In this episode of Straight Up With Steph, I’m joined by Teresa Power to explore how better sleep can transform overall health and well-being. Drawing on her experience with oral appliances and sleep education, Teresa shares actionable tips on improving sleep hygiene, recognizing sleep disorder signs, and optimizing rest with the right sleeping positions and bedding materials.
Sleep impacts every aspect of physical and mental health, yet common issues like poor rest or disorders are often overlooked. Teresa’s insights will empower dental professionals to help patients while providing valuable advice for anyone looking to enhance their own sleep quality.
Tune in for practical guidance to sleep better, feel better, and live better!
