Advanced Dental Sleep Business Seminar
Dr. Denbar is teaching an advanced billing and clinical seminar in Dental Sleep Medicine (designated as an Approved PACE Program Provider by the Academy of General Dentistry.)
This Dental Sleep Continuing Education (CE) Seminar focuses on medical insurance reimbursement and the clinical aspects of Dental Sleep Medicine. Understand how both impact the business side of your practice. Learn how to provide maximum benefits for your patients and learn how to get paid for Oral Appliance Therapy.
Dr. Denbar is an in-network provider with major medical insurance companies for oral appliances to treat sleep apnea as an alternative to CPAP. Our Austin, TX office is located in the Citibank building at the NW corner of MoPac and Spicewood Springs.
Oral appliances have been registered by the FDA and may be used to treat sleep apnea when administered by a qualified dentist trained in Dental Sleep Therapy.
