Cibele Dal Fabbro, PhD

Graduated in dentistry 30 years ago in Sao Paulo (Brazil), my professional life was dedicated to clinics and research in sleep bruxism and sleep apnea, a field very new in the nineties. The first paper about sleep bruxism that I read in 1992, the year I started the master program really interested me. It was a paper from Drs Gilles Lavigne and Jacques Montplaisir, from Montreal, a group that really pushed the field, and I would say, opened the field in dentistry. I went to Montreal to do a fellowship with this group in 2002, between my master and PhD programs. Nowadays I am currently the Dental Sleep Medicine Coordinator at the Sleep Institute in Sao Paulo, and since January 2020, I am also a researcher at the Research Center of CIUSSS NIM & CHUM, Faculty of Dental Medicine, Université de Montréal.
