Understanding Sleep Apnea

Sleep apnea is a serious sleep disorder where breathing repeatedly stops and starts during the night. The most common form, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), happens when throat muscles relax and block your airway.

Common signs include:

• Loud, chronic snoring

• Gasping or choking during sleep

• Daytime drowsiness

• Morning headaches

• Difficulty concentrating

• Irritability or mood swings

Untreated sleep apnea increases your risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, and diabetes. It also affects your productivity, memory, and immune function.

Oral Appliance Therapy Near Lyndhurst, NJ

A Comfortable Alternative to CPAP

Many patients find CPAP machines uncomfortable or difficult to tolerate. That’s where oral appliances come in. These custom-fit mouthguards reposition your jaw slightly forward during sleep, keeping your airway open and reducing apnea episodes.

Benefits of Oral Appliance Therapy:

• Quiet and portable, no mask, hose, or machine

• Easy to wear and clean

• Improves sleep quality and reduces snoring

• Non-invasive and travel-friendly

We work closely with your sleep physician or can refer you for a sleep study if needed. Once diagnosed, our dentists customize your appliance to ensure a comfortable, effective fit.
