We need to Breathe to Live!
Dr. Sevey and Sophie just got back
from a two day seminar in Boston on Dental Sleep Medicine. Sophie had sent
an email last year on Obstructive Sleep Apnea(OSA), but after attending
Dr. Tucker’s presentation, she was inspired to send out another.
Dr.
Tucker shared that no male in his family has lived past the age
of 57 due to OSA. Even his 14 year old son suffers from OSA. It is no
wonder that he is passionate about treating this potentially deadly
condition.
Individuals with OSA repeatedly stop breathing during sleep
due to a complete or partial obstruction of the airway in the back of
the throat. The stress on the body caused by this lack of oxygen results
in increased risk of heart attack and stroke as well as extreme
tiredness. OSA can be successfully treated using a dental appliance
designed to keep the patient’s airways open.
Do you or does someone you love snore? While not everyone who snores
has OSA, everyone who has OSA snores. The only way to find out whether
you have OSA is to have a sleep study. If you do snore, get tested! If
someone you love snores, get them tested! Don’t brush it off as just
snoring! We need to breath to live!

A recent trip to England...
Dr. Sevey and Sophie recently returned from England; sadly, the trip was for Sophie's mother's funeral. Heartbreaking as losing a loved-one is, they found joy & comfort in the company of friends and family.
Here is Dr. Sevey with his great neice, Rosanna Sophie.
Just look at that little face!
A perfect moment, captured on camera-- too beautiful to not share. <3

Taking an Antibiotic?
This past Friday the CDS Team had our annual OSHA Training with the always informative Cathy Turbyne! We went over all the usual safety and infection control precautions, but we also discussed something new: the importance of taking probiotics in conjunction with your antibiotic, or even as a daily supplement.

^A really great blog post about the benefits of Probiotics!^
In recent years, C diff (Clostridium Difficile) infections have become
more frequent, more severe and more difficult to treat. Unfortunately
Antibiotics kill all bacteria, not just the bad ones. When antibiotics
destroy the good bacteria in our digestive systems, C diff infections
can occur. Probiotics help to increase the number of healthy bacteria so
decreasing the possibility of a C diff infection.Make sure you talk to your Doctor, (or Dentist, FNP, Pharmacist, etc...) about the antibiotic you're being prescribed, and ask about the need for a probiotic. The link above has some really great info about how to choose the right probiotics for you.
