S5:E45 - Dr. Jo Ingleby & Dr. Aoife Stack: Airway, Pregnancy, and Fetal Development

My guests today are Dr. Joanne Ingleby and Dr. Aoife Stack.

 

Dr. Ingleby started out in Children’s and Community dentistry and then moved on to working in General Practice where she has been for the past 30 years. Her practice has been general dentistry, taking care of patients and helping them achieve the smile they want with often minimal treatment, hopefully maintaining long-term dental health. She is now looking after her first patients' children and enjoying the different challenges that different dental generations bring.

 

Dr Ingleby has an active interest in the treatment of snoring and sleep apnea, is on the Board of the British Society of Dental Sleep Medicine, completed the Masterclass in Dental Sleep Medicine, and is a member of the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine. She teaches Dental Sleep Medicine to other dentists and is trying to increase awareness in the UK of the importance of an unobstructed airway for all ages. She receives direct referrals from National Sleep Clinics and ENT consultants, and of course from her patient population, who happen to mention that they snore.

Hailing from County Clare in the West of Ireland, Dr. Stack studied at University College Cork where she won awards for her clinical work and research.

 

Aoife is a general dentist with an interest in how function and structure come together to affect our airways, sleep, breathing, and facial form. She offers myofunctional therapy alongside orthodontic treatments. She has completed a one-year orthodontic certificate in London and has trained with the Breathe Institute in Los Angeles for treatment of tongue tie. She performs functional frenuloplasty, treating children and adults within a multidisciplinary team to help her patients towards optimal health. She is an avid learner, takes courses and attends conferences to keep up to date with current thinking, and has a keen interest in research having most recently been published in the British Dental Journal.

She is qualified as a myofunctional therapist and is a board member of the British Society of Dental Sleep Medicine. She is a The Breathe Institute ambassador.
