Take Our Quiz

There are a number of quizzes and questionnaires used to determine your risk for sleep apnea. At the Bethesda Center for Dental Sleep Medicine & TMJ Therapy, Dr. Greenbaum relies on one of the simplest guides to get started the STOP-BANG questionnaire. This acronym stands for Snoring, Tiredness, Observation, Pressure, Body mass, Age, Neck size, and Gender. These are all areas that help us determine whether patients are at an increased risk for sleep apnea. Once you complete the form, Dr. Greenbaum will review it and contact you within 24 hours to discuss the results and how best to proceed.
