Why Your Dentist Cares About Your Sleep (and Your Health)
Wed Jan 28 2026
When sleep problems crop up, they don’t always point where you'd expect.
Snoring, restless sleep, morning headaches, brain fog, anxiety, high blood pressure - these are often treated as separate issues, rather than separate issues with a common root. In this episode, Dr. T sits down with Chad Seeber of Sleep Group Solutions to talk about what’s often overlooked in conversations about sleep: the airway.
They explore why dentists are uniquely positioned to spot sleep-related breathing problems, how sleep apnea and upper airway resistance can quietly shape long-term health, and why sleep issues labeled “mild” still need to be addressed. The conversation connects oxygen, stress physiology, and fragmented sleep, and explains why better diagnostics can make the difference between guesswork and predictable results.
If you’ve ever been told your sleep study was “nothing to worry about,” struggled with fatigue despite doing all the right things, or wondered why airway health keeps coming up in the dental chair, this episode offers a clearer way to connect the dots.
