Sleep medicine

Sleep medicine or somnology is a medical specialty or subspecialty devoted to the diagnosis and therapy of sleep disturbances and disorders. From the middle of the 20th century, research in the field of somnology has provided increasing knowledge of, and answered many questions about, sleep–wake functioning. The rapidly evolving field has become a recognized medical subspecialty, with somnologists practicing in various countries. Dental sleep medicine also qualifies for board certification in some countries. Properly organized, minimum 12-month, postgraduate training programs are still being defined in the United States. The sleep physicians who treat patients (known as somnologists), may dually serve as sleep researchers in certain countries.
