The role of the dental surgeon in an integrated care pathway for the treatment of breathing difficulties.

The concept of team working towards more efficient and focused delivery of care to our patients is one of the major developments, both within the practice environment through professionals complementary to dentistry, and indeed through medical and surgical colleagues in dealing with some of the wider aspects of holistic healthcare.
