Abstract
The role of prosthodontist in managing sleep disorders with oral appliances is attaining more significance.[1] The prosthodontist has the opportunity to recognize, evaluate sleep‐related disorders, and manage the situations ranging from snoring to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). It is vital to be aware sleep disorders and the possible impact that can aid in providing effective care to the patients reporting to prosthodontic clinics.[2]
