Nevada Dental Sleep, a one-of-a-kind medical practice focusing on treating airway disorders to heal sleep apnea, has opened in Henderson, Nev., at 880 Seven Hills Drive, Suite 180. Nevada Dental Sleep is the office of Dr. Jerry Hu, who is one of only a few medical professionals in the world triple board-certified in dental sleep medicine.
Sleep apnea is a potentially lethal condition that can lead to heart trouble, high blood pressure, obesity, and some studies even indicate links to early dementia. A proven leader in his field, Hu overcame his own sleep apnea with airway treatment, and enjoyed weight loss in excess of 100 pounds.
“It’s sad how underdiagnosed and undertreated airway disorders are. From pediatric to geriatric patients, sleep apnea is not just an inconvenience, it affects the immune system and other health systems,” Hu emphasized. “Airway treatment has changed my life and medical practice, and it has helped so many of my patients feel like they have a new lease on life.”
Nevada Dental Sleep uses ProSomnus sleep devices to offer noninvasive custom oral appliance therapy (COAT). Hu is also an expert in orthotropics, a form of facial growth guidance, and other innovative and integrative approaches to airway treatment.
Hu, who also practices in Alaska, has been listed as a leader in continuing education and top lecturer by Dentistry Today. He has had research published in peer-reviewed journals such as the Academy of General Dentistry, Journal of Dental Sleep Medicine, and others. He has spoken and lectured for the American Sleep and Breathing Academy and educates peers around the globe on the benefits and new cutting-edge airway disorder treatments.
