Expert Sleep Health Solutions for Adults
Sleep apnea is a sleep disorder that affects more than 25 million adults in the US alone. It can be difficult to know that you are suffering from Sleep Apnea because the condition and events that surround it are all occurring while you are sleeping. For many people, they only discover that they have Sleep Apnea because someone else is able to tell them that they are observing clear signs. This can include snoring, stopping breathing in your sleep, and frequently moving in your sleep.
You might also experience:
- Extreme drowsiness during the day
- Personality changes and irritability
- Difficulty staying asleep
- Waking up with a very dry or sore throat
- Frequent morning headaches
- Short-term memory lapses (especially in the morning)

Custom Oral Appliance Therapy
Until recently, mild to moderate sleep apnea treatment usually involved a CPAP machine, which keeps your airway open while you sleep with a stream of pressurized air. In 2006, the American Academy of Sleep Medicine included oral appliances as a first line of therapy for mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea. An appliance that gently moves your jaw into a position that keeps your airway open while you sleep. Many sleep apnea sufferers find our customized appliances less invasive, more comfortable, and more convenient than a CPAP.
