SCOTCH PLAINS, N.J., May 21, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- With over 25 years of clinical experience, Dr. Sunita Merriman believes that sleep, mental health and oral health are the cornerstones of systemic health, overall wellness and an optimal quality of life. This is why Dr. Merriman bridges treatment for snoring, sleep apnea and CPAP intolerance, and comprehensive general and cosmetic dentistry at her Westfield, New Jersey practice.

Her practice, the New Jersey Dental Sleep Medicine Center (NJDSMC) is dedicated to helping the community improve their health and quality of life by treating Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), snoring and CPAP intolerance.

Dr. Merriman is committed to educating the medical and dental community about Oral Appliance Therapy (OAT) and its role in treating Sleep Disordered Breathing (SDB). She is also committed to exploring how OAT could help patients who have a history of trauma and/or mental illness and suffer from SDB and Insomnia.

Dr. Merriman graduated with honors and received multiple awards from the College of Dentistry at New York University and successfully completed a two year residency in general dentistry from Long Island Jewish Medical Center. She is a Diplomate of both the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine (ABDSM) and the American Board of Craniofacial Dental Sleep Medicine (ABCDSM). This achievement is notable as a minority of dentists achieve Diplomate status with one Dental Sleep Board and even fewer do so with multiple Boards.

There are only approximately 300 dentists in the United States who have met these Board requirements. Dr. Merriman was able to attain this prestigious recognition by successfully completing a multi-stage process of both Boards which included meeting stringent pre-certification requirements, a comprehensive written examination, in addition to a thorough review of patient care skills and outcomes.

To stay updated on emerging tools and technologies, Dr. Merriman attends conferences, reads published materials, and regularly converses with colleagues. She also believes that being an educator helps her to be a life- long learner.

In addition to her professional career, Dr. Merriman is a poet and recently published her first book of poems, Stripping: My Fight to Find Me. You can learn more about her mission on her personal website: http://www.SunitaMerriman.com
