    Dr. Walker's research points to plaques (something like on your teeth) building up in the brain being consistent with some types of dementia. A purpose of sleep is to wash those plaques away, so sleep quality is an indicator of likelihood of developing dementia. A great read about many other aspects of sleep. Highly recommend this one!
