Not Sure Where to Start?
The process begins with a consultation and a proper sleep study diagnosis. Once we confirm you are a candidate, our team uses a high-tech 3D scanner to take digital impressions. Without any messy goop, we then design and fabricate a custom appliance precise to your unique anatomy.
Yes, treating obstructive sleep apnea is considered a medical necessity rather than a dental procedure, meaning it is often covered under your medical insurance. We will help you understand the appropriate diagnostic codes so you can submit your claims and maximize your potential benefits.
While a CPAP machine remains highly effective for severe cases, oral appliances are a much more comfortable, totally silent, and travel-friendly alternative for mild to moderate sleep apnea. Many patients who struggle to tolerate the bulky mask of a CPAP find excellent relief with a sleek oral appliance.
Even primary snoring without obstructive pauses in breathing can disrupt your sleep and your partner's rest. A custom oral appliance works by gently shifting your jaw forward, which keeps your airway entirely open and prevents the soft tissues from vibrating noisily while you sleep.
While snoring is very common, sleep apnea involves actual pauses in your breathing while asleep. Symptoms like waking up gasping for air, excessive daytime fatigue, morning headaches, and severe dry mouth strongly indicate sleep apnea rather than simple snoring. A professional sleep test provides a definitive medical diagnosis.
