ADA Meeting: Task Force Report on Screening for Pediatric Airway / Sleep Disorders
Steve Carstensen, DDS

April 12, 2021 @ 9:00 pm - 10:00 pm EDT

In early April a task force committee will present pediatric sleep screening forms to the ADA. This task force created by Dr. Carstensen has worked for over a year to develop screening questionnaires that all dentists and other practitioners can use to effectively and efficiently screen for airway / sleep problems. It is hoped these forms will be accepted and adopted by the ADA to allow more practitioners to identify those in need of care.
In this webinar, Dr. Carstensen will present a review of the meeting and what the future holds for those in the dental arena and for children with unrecognized airway problems.
Dr. Steve Carstensen, DDS, is the co-founder of Premier Sleep Associates, a dental practice dedicated to treating obstructive sleep apnea and snoring. In 1996 he achieved Fellowship in the Academy of General Dentists.. A lifelong educator himself, Dr. Carstensen is currently the Sleep Education Director for both Pankey Institute and Spear Education, recognized as among the finest places for dentists to further their education. As a volunteer leader for the American Dental Association, he was a Program Chairman and General Chairman for the Annual Session, the biggest educational event the Association sponsors. He is a board member of the AAPMD and program co-chairman of the 2021 Collaboration Cures Conference.
