The British Society of Dental Sleep Medicine (BSDSM) has officially merged with the British Sleep Society (BSS), marking an exciting new chapter in the advancement of sleep health across the UK.

This merger brings together two complementary communities: dental professionals specialising in sleep‑related breathing disorders, and the wider multidisciplinary network of clinicians, researchers, and allied health professionals within BSS. By joining forces, we aim to enhance collaboration, broaden expertise, and strengthen the collective voice of sleep medicine.

What this means for members:

  • Integration of dental sleep medicine expertise into BSS activities, meetings, and educational programmes.
  • Expanded networking opportunities across disciplines, fostering stronger links between dentistry, medicine, and research.
  • Access to shared resources and knowledge, supporting best practice in the management of sleep disorders.
  • Unified representation of sleep professionals in the UK, ensuring a more cohesive approach to advocacy and awareness.

We warmly welcome BSDSM members into the BSS community and look forward to working together to improve sleep health and patient care.
