IAOS Blueprint April
Discover the Proven Blueprint for Success in Dental Sleep Medicine
Inside the IAOS Blueprint
What You’ll Learn At Our Blueprint Event
Learn, in extreme detail, every component of the business model over 200 IAOS partner dentists use to generate an endless stream of physician-diagnosed sleep apnea patients in their practices. This is a dramatically different process than simply generating referrals from sleep physicians - your new business will create a pool of tested and physician-diagnosed patients.
Fundamentals of Dental Sleep Medicine: Clinical Science & Oral Appliances
Learn all the basic science of dental sleep medicine and an intro to oral appliances from Dr. Brandon Hedgecock. Brandon is a member of the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine (AADSM) and a Diplomate of the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine. He has also achieved Diplomate status with the American Sleep and Breathing Academy.
Our Proven Reimbursement Process
Most dentists struggle to get adequately reimbursed by medical insurance, if they even get reimbursed at all. While there’s no “secret” to medical insurance reimbursement, it requires an immense amount of documentation - and we've whittled that down to a detailed, sequential process which, when followed to the letter, helps ensure you are paid an average of $3,000 per patient.* The Blueprint event is your introduction and overview of this process. When you choose to partner with IAOS, our team will work with you to understand how you can move forward with doing this yourself or working with a partner to streamline the process.
Legal, Business, and Insurance Frameworks
The IAOS model requires creating two brand-new businesses that do not exist today inside your practice. While your dental practice can be a key feeder for your sleep practice, you must keep sleep separate for business purposes. We introduce you to the business frameworks required to ensure full legal compliance, maximum insurance reimbursement, and future business sale potential.

Our Promise to You
While we would never guarantee that a single two-day introduction to dental sleep medicine course will ensure your success as a practitioner and business owner, we can certainly guarantee that you will leave the event knowing more than 99.9% of dentists know about what is required to truly succeed in dental sleep medicine.
What you do with that knowledge from there will be up to you.
Some dentists simply go on their way and return to traditional dentistry. A fair amount, however, choose to participate in our IAOS Premium consulting program and get our guidance, systems and support to build a successful dental sleep medicine practice.
You have two choices: close the page and continue down the dentistry path, or take a 100% risk-free weekend trip and see what this is all about.
What People Are Saying
Over 180 dentists have adopted the IAOS model to build a successful sleep business
Once I made the decision to hang up the handpiece, I was 100% all-in and I have no regrets at all. I never would have done that without IAOS guiding me in that direction. Today, we’re up to just over 20 appliances a month, and we’re planning on ramping that up quite a bit.
Paul Jones
IAOS is like anything else in life: the more you put into it, the more you get out of it. If you’re going to join, go at full steam and take advantage of everything that is offered through the organization and you will succeed.
Dana Blalock
Today, I rent two operatories two days a month, and other than my beautiful wife, my only other payroll is a chairside assistant that only gets paid for two days a month. With this low overhead we’re able to help 15-20 patients a month with an average net of $4,000 an appliance.

Learn More About IAOS Blueprint April
The Sleep Practice Blueprint Event is a multi-day training in the BUSINESS of dental sleep medicine. Of course, you’ll learn about the science of sleep. But that’s just scratching the surface!
The rest of the time is used to cover the entire system we use to essentially turn the traditional dental sleep medicine model upside down.
This is called a Blueprint because that’s exactly what it is. We will SHOW YOU the entire process, step-by-step, and have you in a room long enough to clearly and meticulously explain every part of the system we’ve taught to some of the country’s most successful dental sleep medicine practice owners.
What we cover during this event is not something you will find anywhere else. No one else could present this to you because no one else KNOWS IT.
We’ve pioneered a complete system for getting sleep patients, getting paid, and everything in between. You’ll learn every single detail at the Blueprint event.
But you won’t just hear about it – at this event, you have the option to actually see it in action. Peek over the shoulder at Dr. Brandon Hedgecock’s Sleep Better Austin the day before the event to see how a 7-figure sleep-only practice operates in real time.
