Interrupted and paused breathing while you sleep are the defining characteristics of sleep apnea. When this is caused by obstructions in your airway, it is called obstructive sleep apnea. Some examples of obstructions include the tongue rolling to the back on the throat and collapsed tissue in the airway. There are serious health conditions that sleep apnea can contribute to, including heart disease, high blood pressure and liver problems.
A sleep physician must be the one to diagnose sleep apnea, but we recommend that you talk with our dentist as well. Some common symptoms of sleep apnea include: Extreme daytime drowsiness Changes in personality and increased irritability Interrupted sleep Snoring Dry or sore throat when waking up Frequent morning headaches

I was referred to Dr. Echetebu by a friend and I am glad that she did. Dr. Echetebu is awesome and so is his staff. They are professional, courteous, knowledgeable and responsive to my concerns. Dr. E does it all and his prices are reasonable so I have found my new dentist. In fact, it's a family thing because my sons are now patients of Dr. E also. "Thank you!"

The quality of care I received from Dental Care of Germantown was top notch. From Andrew at front desk getting me in quickly, to the dental hygienists and assistants with their wonderful smiles and caring attitudes, to the amazing, Dr. Echetebu with his calm quiet demeanor that always puts me at ease. This is the dental care we all want and deserve. Thank you to everyone that makes this place feel like family. A proud customer, Gail Bentley

My experience with the dentist office staff today was very pleasant, from the front office to the dental hygienist's chair. Their professional kindness was comforting to my spirit. The dental hygienist's touch was very soothing during the teeth cleaning process. Dentist Echetebu was the "picture of patience" during our discussion about my dental needs. I discovered this dental office one year ago, and the staff's patient-centered demeanor continues to direct their interaction.

Today my son has an appointment for cleaning his teeth as usual 6 months and checking his teeth but it is worse cleaning for ever . A nurse doesn't use fluoride not today and not last six months. There is no doctor to check his teeth or xray picture . She doesn't job correct and just ask him to clean his gum with lazier. And ask for pay from our pocket for that . She only try make a money for office without any attention to do her job correctly. Also if you don't has a doctor why get appointment !!!!!!! If your child want to go to this office never leave them alone . They need supervision for do correct job . Never trust them ever .

Absolutely great care by Dr E . Wonderful dentist!! I'd been seeing Dr Walley there for over 15 years . You had better be ready for an aggressive wallet biopsy , if you hadn't received new policy and procedures as I hadn't. I didn't even know Don was gone. Once you get by the front desk your fine.

I've been using Dental Care of Germantown since before it had that name. I was amazed that when it transitioned, the care got even better, if that is possible. I would recommend it to anyone. The whole staff, from Dr. E. on down, is amazing.
