Dr. Emely Salas
General Dentist
Screening and appliances, in step with your physician.
Dr. Emely Salas is a general dentist with a particular interest in how the airway, the jaw and sleep fit together. She asks about snoring and sleep, looks at your airway and bite, and tells you when to see a physician first.
Where a physician has diagnosed sleep apnea and recommends an oral appliance, she makes and fits it, adjusts it and sends follow-up notes back to your physician. She does not diagnose sleep apnea.
