An oral appliance for obstructive sleep apnea is an option for patients who have been diagnosed with mild to moderate sleep apnea or for patients who can’t tolerate using a CPAP machine.
The appliance works by moving your lower jaw forward to a position that stabilizes your tongue and soft tissues to prevent them from blocking your airway while you sleep, thus allowing you to receive the health benefits of a full night’s sleep.
Once you have completed a sleep study and have been diagnosed by a physician with Obstructive Sleep Apnea, contact Restful Region to set up an initial consultation to make sure that an oral appliance is a good treatment option for your specific needs.
