Meet Dr Jessica Harris

As the founder and lead clinician of Sleep Matters, I am honoured to be able to share my passion for improving peoples lives through Oral Appliance Therapy.

Since graduating as a dentist from the University of Otago over 14 years ago, I completed further training in Dental Sleep Medicine in Melbourne before undergoing the Mastery Program of Dental Sleep Medicine offered by the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine (AADSM). Dental Sleep Medicine is an area that focuses on the use of Oral Appliance Therapy to treat sleep disordered breathing (such as snoring and obstructive sleep apnoea).

I have always been deeply committed to helping others, and the Sleep Matters clinic is a result of that commitment. By providing custom made, fully adjustable Oral Appliances, as well as ongoing guidance and support from a qualified health professional, we are able to offer our patients a non-invasive, comfortable and effective solution to a very common sleep problem.

There is something very special about seeing the transformation in the people we treat - from sleep deprived, sleeping in a different room to their partner because of snoring, and struggling with sleep related health problems - to well rested, back in the same bed after many years, and an improvement in their over-all health and wellbeing.

I am excited to bring this service to Wellington and the surrounding regions, and am confident that the Sleep Matters clinic will make a significant difference in the lives of many.

I look forward to helping you on your journey towards better sleep and better health.
