Dr. Roubal’s Credentials
Although Dr. Roubal graduated with his DDS from Creighton University in 1974, he has never stopped learning, and he continues to add certifications for advanced training in sleep apnea treatment and other types of dentistry. Dr Roubal recently became President of the American Board of Craniofacial Dental Sleep Medicine. In 2013, he was certified by the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine and became a Diplomate of Craniofacial Dental Sleep Medicine. His facilities were also accredited by the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine, one of only 45 institutions nationwide to receive this distinction.
These professional organizations and the recognitions they have given him set Dr. Roubal apart from other dentists in the area.
Dr. Roubal also makes sure his staff are well-trained to assist you with your sleep problems with a good understanding of the problem and its treatment.
Dr. Tracy Brigden
Dr. Brigden was born in Blackpool, England and moved to the United States with his parents in 1970. Beginning his career as a radiologic technologist specializing in CAT scans and MRIs, Dr. Brigden considered going to medical school, but ultimately decided dentistry was where he wanted to make his impact. Dr. Brigden established a successful practice at Legacy Dental, and in 2015 decided to focus more on sleep treatment and thus joined Advanced Dental Sleep Treatment Center. Dr. Brigden shadowed Dr. Roubal for a year before seeing his own patients and learned what it takes clinically to far exceed national standards for successful sleep apnea and snoring treatment. Along with hands on experience with Dr. Roubal, Dr. Brigden has taken hundreds of hours of continuing education courses specific to Dental Sleep treatment. He is working towards becoming a Diplomate of the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine (AADSM), and in that mission has recently earned the status of Qualified Dentist, by the AADSM. In August of 2016, he started seeing his own patients two days per week, and has enjoyed being part of the team.
Disclaimer: “Even though Dr. Roubal and Dr. Brigden have advanced training and credentialing from the major Dental Sleep Medicine Boards, the American Dental Association does not recognize Dental Sleep Medicine as a specialty at this time.”
The Decision Is Yours
Sleep apnea is a complex and serious problem with many different potential solutions. At the Advanced Dental Sleep Treatment Center, we are dedicated to giving you a full range of solutions so that you know all your options. For some, CPAP is the right choice.

We will give you all the information you need to know. We will talk to you about which treatments will work best for you, and the limits and benefits of each, but we let you make the decision for yourself.
