Q

Invisalign Process (submitting to company):

A
  1. PVS impression (or intra-oral digital scan) & bite registration
    ● PVS impression of uppers & lowers (even if only treating 1 arch)
    ○ Tray needs to reach distal of terminal molar
    ○ Don’t need to capture palate
    ○ Seat impression vertically without tilting (unlike seating alginate posterior to anterior to express excess)
  2. Panoramic radiograph or full mouth series
  3. Extra & intra-oral photographs
  4. Prescription form (online submission)

Bit registration & panoramic/full mouth series no longer required

Q

Sleep deprivation ⇒ leads to

A

excessive daytime sleepiness (falling asleep during day)

32
Q

● Sleeping < 7 hours ⇒

A

increases risk of falling asleep during day, while driving, & snoring
● Sleep deprivation affects mood & performance

33
Q

Sleep deprivation

● Causes:

A
○	Voluntary behavior (most common cause)
○	Medical:
■	Dyssomnias ⇒ 
■	Parasomnias ⇒  
■	Medica/psychiatric ⇒
34
Q

■ Dyssomnias ⇒

A

insomnia; narcolepsy, restless leg syndrome, sleep disordered breathing)

35
Q

■ Parasomnias ⇒

A

sleepwalking; bruxism

36
Q

■ Medica/psychiatric ⇒

A

anxiety; depression

37
Q

Continuum of Sleep disordered breathing:

A

● Normal
● Non-sleepy snorer

● Sleepy snorer (Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome)

● Obstructive Sleep apnea (OSA)

38
Q

● Non-sleepy snorer

A

○ Snoring bc windpipe closes slightly during sleep when muscles relax

39
Q

● Sleepy snorer (Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome)

A

○ Smaller windpipe causes inflammation - airway size disturbs sleep

40
Q

Apnea ⇒ cessation of breathing

A

> 10sec

41
Q

Hypoapnea ⇒

A

decreased airflow (30 or 50%) ass. with O2 desaturation of 3-4%

42
Q

Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) =

A

total # of apnea + hypopnea / hours of sleep

43
Q

● Severity of sleep apnea:

A

○ Normal < 5
○ Mild 5-14; Moderate 15-30
○ Severe > 30

44
Q

Normal sleep O2 saturation =

A

94-98%

45
Q

All O2 desaturations

A

90% medically significant

46
Q

OSA ⇒ AHI at least

A

5 + daytime somnolence

47
Q

OSA:

● Prevalence:

A

○ More common in males

○ Worsens with age & increasing weight

48
Q

Obstructive Sleep Apnea:

● Breathing disorder with

A

intermittent hypoxemia & sleep arousals

49
Q

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

○ Apnea →

A

Hypoxia/hypercapnia stimulates sympathetic response → increases ventilatory effort & causes arousal from sleep

50
Q

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

○ Increased sympathetics →

A

cardiovascular complications

51
Q

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Causes:

A

○ Anatomic airway narrowing
■ Obstruction can be in nasopharynx; oropharynx (70%), hypopharynx
○ Sleep induced loss of muscle tone
■ Neuromuscular compensatory mechanisms keep airway open when awake
○ Insufficient dilator muscle contraction

52
Q

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

● Clinical consequences:

A

○ Excessive daytime sleepiness (affects mood & 2x likely for car accident)
○ Increased sympathetic tone → increases risk for HTN, coronary artery disease, CHF

53
Q

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

■ Treatment of OSA with CPAP reduces

A

HTN

54
Q

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Comorbidities ass. with OSA:

A
○	Drug resistant HTN (83%)  -   uncontrolled by 2+ antihypertensives
○	Obesity (77%)
○	Congestive heart failure (76%)
○	Diabetes (50%)
○	Benign HTN (37%)
55
Q

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

● Risk factors for sleep apnea:

A

○ Obesity
■ Neck size better predictor than BMI
● 17+ inches in males & 16+ inches in females increases likelihood of OSA
■ Biggest risk factor for adults, but NOT elderly ( ↓ muscle tone) or children (tonsillar hypertrophy)
○ Increasing age
○ Family history - bc heritable skeletal relationships
○ Smoking & alcohol use (depresses CNS)

56
Q

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

● Findings in clinical examination:

A

○ Retrognathia (increased overjet bc small mandible)
○ Macroglossia
○ Lateral peritonsillar narrowing

57
Q

Metabolic syndrome ⇒

A

group of risk factors that occur together & ↑ risk of CAD, stroke, DM Type II

58
Q

Metabolic syndrome

● Diabetes, impaired glucose tolerance, insulin resistance AND 2 of the following:

A

○ HTN
○ Dyslipidemia
○ Central obesity
○ Microalbuminuria

59
Q

Pediatric sleep apnea ⇒

A

AHI 1 or greater considered OSA; (fussy rather than sleepy throughout day)

60
Q

STOP-BANG model questionnaire:

A
●	Snoring loudly?
●	Tired during day?
●	Has anyone Observed you stop breathing during sleep?
●	High blood Pressure
●	BMI > 35?
●	Age > 50?
●	Neck circumference greater than 40 cm (16 in)?
●	Gender
61
Q

High risk of OSA if

A

AHI >5 with 3+ above items

● Note: signs & symptoms poorly predict disease severity

62
Q

Diagnosis with Polysomnography

● EGG ⇒

A

monitors brain activity to document sleeps stages

63
Q

Diagnosis with Polysomnography

● EOG ⇒

A

eye movements - determines REM vs. non-REM sleep

64
Q

Diagnosis with Polysomnography

● Nasal/oral capnography ⇒

66
Q

Diagnosis with Polysomnography

● EMG ⇒
