Breathe, Sleep, Live, Smile

Integrative Treatments For TMJ/TMD, Sleep Apnea, and Orthodontics

For those affected by chronic pain, it’s disheartening to go from specialist to specialist without finding a solution. Dr. Lynn Lipskis empathizes, having suffered from and overcome chronic pain herself. It is now her life’s work to help those suffering from painful conditions like TMJ dysfunction and sleep related breathing disorders.

Drs. Lynn and Ed Lipskis wrote Breath, Sleep, Live, Smile: Integrative Treatments For TMJ/TMD, Sleep Apnea, and Orthodontics to educate patients on the treatment options available for conditions affecting the airways, teeth, and jaw. These treatments can also improve patients’ overall health and happiness, giving them the relief they’ve been seeking. By educating patients and providers on innovative solutions, Drs. Lipskis hope to shift the mindset in the medical community from addressing individual symptoms to finding the causes of conditions.

This guide is a wealth of knowledge, giving readers the information they need to identify the possible causes of their conditions and start the conversation with their provider about finding a lasting solution. Through this book readers will learn:

• How your airway affects your sleep, nervous system, and overall health.
• The importance of identifying the true source of pain.
• The connection between TMJ and sleep apnea.
• What to expect through your treatment process.
• An extensive explanation of a wide variety of treatment options.
• The connection between nutrition and inflammation.
• And so much more!

Drs. Lipskis are driven to constantly improve their practice as they see these treatments change the lives of their patients. This is not just a book about dentistry or orthodontics, it’s about how to improve your health and happiness through addressing the source of your pain. This is the first step on the path to sleeping better, feeling better, and smiling more often!
