Could Sleep Be the Missing Connection?

When patients continue to struggle, we look for answers. But are we recognizing the role that sleep and sleep-disordered breathing may play in the health concerns they bring to our practices?

CAMS™ brings medicine and dentistry together to explore those connections—and help clinicians move from awareness to practical next steps.

In 2027, we will follow sleep and sleep-disordered breathing across the generations: from pediatric growth and development through young adulthood, midlife, and geriatric care.

A Broader Perspective Across a Lifetime

Sleep concerns change with age. So do the opportunities to recognize them, ask meaningful questions, and connect patients with appropriate care.

Our conversations will explore:

• Pediatric foundations: sleep, breathing, airway and craniofacial growth and development, and opportunities for early recognition and collaboration.
• Young adulthood: recognizing concerns as patients transition into adult care.
• Midlife: changing sleep patterns, hormonal considerations, insomnia, and sleep-disordered breathing.
• Geriatric care: sleep concerns within the context of aging, other health conditions, and continuity of care.

Throughout the summit, the emphasis remains practical: What should I look for? What should I ask? What should I do next?

Your Perspective Belongs in the Room

You do not need to be a sleep specialist to participate.

CAMS™ welcomes physicians, nurse practitioners, physician associates/assistants, dentists, nurses, chiropractors, and other healthcare professionals who want a clearer understanding of sleep and its place in patient care.

Pediatrics, primary care, OB/GYN, ENT, allergy, orthodontics, cardiology, pulmonology, geriatrics, and dentistry each bring a valuable perspective.

Whether you are beginning to explore sleep or already have experience to share, your questions and clinical insights contribute to the conversation.

Learning Through Conversation and Connection

CAMS™ combines focused presentations with case discussions, diagnostic and treatment panels, and guided implementation conversations.

The intimate setting gives attendees opportunities to ask questions, learn across disciplines, and build relationships with clinicians and implementation partners.

Implementation partners participate in the learning experience, helping attendees explore practical resources and pathways for their practices.

Jack & Jill — Following the Patient Journey

Meet Jack and Jill: two evolving hypothetical patient journeys that connect the educational experience to the decisions clinicians face in practice.

Their stories bring the discussions to life, helping attendees explore how sleep and breathing concerns may be recognized, evaluated, and addressed across different stages of life and healthcare settings.

Through these cases, we will consider:

• Recognizing concerns and asking screening questions.
• Navigating diagnostic pathways and understanding testing results.
• Exploring treatment options and collaborative referrals.
• Addressing practical barriers to care.
• Choosing language that supports effective patient communication.
• Planning follow-up and continuity of care.

Jack and Jill’s stories will connect presentations, discussions, and the CAMS™ Collaborative Field Guide—helping attendees follow the journey from recognition to practical action.

From Recognition to the Next Step

The goal is to help you identify where you can contribute within your professional role—and connect with the people and resources needed to support the next step.

Together, we will explore the language we use for effective patient communication, screening and referral considerations, diagnostic pathways, treatment options, and collaboration between medical and dental teams.

The CAMS™ Collaborative Field Guide

Attendees will receive a curated CAMS™ Collaborative Field Guide designed to accompany the summit and remain useful when they return to their practices.

It serves as a summit companion, an implementation workbook, and a practical resource for capturing insights, organizing connections, and planning next steps.

The guide may include:

• Summit itinerary and faculty information.
• Jack & Jill patient narratives.
• Session summaries and space for notes.
• Resources to accompany panel and implementation discussions.
• Implementation prompts and workflow considerations.
• Collaborative referral concepts and resources for continued learning.

Throughout the summit, attendees can use the guide to connect what they learn with their own patients, teams, and practice settings—building a practical plan for moving forward.

Knowledge becomes more valuable when we put it into action.
