Mark Burhenne, DDS is a bestselling author and a family and sleep medicine dentist who has been in private practice nearly 30 years, focusing on patient-centered and preventative dental healthcare with patients who come to him from all over the world. The day his wife was diagnosed with sleep apnea was the day he began learning everything he could about sleep breathing conditions. He is a TEDx speaker and his advice regularly appears on media outlets such as CNN, CBS, Yahoo! Health, The Huffington Post, Prevention, Men’s Health, and MindBodyGreen. He is the creator of AsktheDentist.com, dedicated to exploring the mouth-body connection for better overall health.
Why did I purchase a book on sleep disorders? I have been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation and sleep apnea (there may be a correlation). Reading this book has provided me with the information I need to have a more informed conversation with my doctor on sleep apnea and makes me realize that my delay in treating sleep apnea is truly harmful to my health and well-being.
The book is to the point and a pretty easy read that you may be able to get through in one sitting (I read this in a little under three hours during a recent flight) and it really left me with a whole new appreciation for the importance of sleep for general well being, because it really is the only opportunity for our mind and body to repair itself, and is a keystone for general well being.
As Dr. Burhenne points out, making sure the room is dark and quiet does very little for people who have difficulty breathing, yet that is the most common advice you will receive when reading about sleep hygiene. Dr. Burhenne shares both his personal experiences and the latest research on the subject. If you are struggling with getting a good nights sleep, start by picking up this book; it could save your life!
This book will literally save lives. Maybe yours or someone you love. I personally suffered from undiagnosed sleep apnea for almost 20 years. I was a skinny guy with severe fatigue, which was impacting my work, mood and my relationships. If you are constantly tired OR are already on CPAP but hate it, check out this book and see if dental solutions might be right for you.
The best book on sleep apnea and other sleep disorders ~ A very important book to read. This is by far the most detailed and important book that I’ve ever read on the subject. 5 stars.

This book is well researched, and very well written. Although the subject is serious, deadly serious, the writing is easy to read, interspersed with personal stories, and totally accessible by the average reader. I have already recommended this book to friends of mine who are on CPAP machines
The Appendices A – G “closed the sale” as I checked the “back of the book”, as I frugally did when I homeschooled my children, for long-term value.
I follow Mark Hyman who endorsed it and have read many things to do.. I received this book for an honest review but was very interested in reading it because I know how important for your body sleeping is.
Awesome. The information in this book can save your life! Even if you don’t look like the classic case, get checked.
This is by far a most informative and practical book. I recommend this to anyone who knows anyone period.
I did like this book, it’s very educational and informative. I think it’s a great starting point to learn about Apnea.
This is the book you want to read before you have a sleep study or if someone has complained that you are snoring.
