There is no single treatment for sleep apnea — the right choice depends on how severe it is, your anatomy, and what you can realistically live with every night. Here are the main paths, explained honestly.
Call our office — sleep and airway care starts with a simple conversation.
A custom-made mouthguard-style device gently holds your lower jaw forward during sleep, keeping the airway open. Small, silent, and travel-friendly — the most popular alternative to CPAP for mild to moderate apnea.
The gold standard for severe apnea: a machine delivers steady air pressure through a mask. Highly effective, though some patients struggle with comfort — we coordinate with your sleep physician on fit and alternatives.
Weight reduction, side sleeping, limiting evening alcohol, and quitting smoking all measurably reduce apnea episodes. They work best combined with a device, not instead of one.
If your apnea happens mostly on your back, simple positional devices train you to sleep on your side — a low-tech fix for a positional pattern.
Selected anatomical problems — enlarged tonsils, a deviated septum, excess throat tissue — can be addressed surgically. We refer to trusted ENT and sleep specialists when this is the right route.
Often the best result comes from pairing: an oral appliance plus weight management, or CPAP plus positional training. Your plan is built around your severity, not a template.
Appliance therapy is not fit-and-forget. We review your progress, adjust the device as your jaw adapts, and re-test periodically to confirm the apnea is actually being controlled.
Our dentists combine modern airway diagnostics with gentle, patient-first care at every visit.
