Have you recently been diagnosed with sleep apnea? Then it is essential to seek treatment as soon as possible to put an end to interrupted breathing during sleep, snoring, and all the health consequences that result from sleep apnea. Below we outlined some of the most common sleep apnea treatment options.
Dental Devices:
Sleep apnea dental devices, such as the Mandibular Advancement Device (MAD) or dorsal device, are custom made by dentists using a plastic-like mold to form to the specific shape of your teeth and mouth. While you sleep, these small, safe, hygienic, and comfortable mouthpieces do all the work to reduce the air resistance that disrupts normal breathing patterns and leads to sleep apnea. Sleep apnea dental devices are an effective, non-invasive treatment that fits easily into your lifestyle. Some of the biggest perks of dental devices are the fact that they are comfortable, easy to wear, quiet, portable, convenient, and easy to care for. As a result, these devices are the perfect substitute to CPAP or oral surgery. Not to mention, research has proven that sleep apnea dental devices are an effective treatment option for snoring and obstructive sleep apnea.
