Recommended reading
The American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine has a useful list of recommended reading for those preparing for the board examinations. For anyone looking forward to learning more about Sleep Medicine from a dental perspective, the list is a good place to start
Alternatively, for a highly recommended introduction into the world of sleep medicine please look into "Sleep Medicine for Dentists: A Practical Overview", edited by Gilles J. Lavigne, Peter A. Cistulli (who are both ETMH Distinguished Speakers) and Michael T. Smith published by Quintessence Books in 2020
