The School Kids In Safe Hands Initiative (SKISHI)- a Cooperative Program between Dr. Kent Smith and SomnoMed
SKISHI: Help for School Bus Drivers
The SKISHI Initiative
If you're a sleepy driver who may be suffering with fatigue, snoring, and sleep apnea, Dr. Kent Smith can help. Dr. Smith is offering a free appliance to DFW school bus drivers who come in to our Irving, TX or Frisco, TX practice. This comfortable, thin oral appliance repositions the tongue and jaw, alleviating the symptoms of sleep apnea and allowing you to breathe and get the deep, restorative sleep you need to be your best each day.
