Our Mission is to Help You Sleep Safer!

DOES THIS STORY SOUND FAMILIAR?

You told your doctor that you weren’t sleeping well and most likely your bed partner complained that you snore or gasp for air while you sleep. Your doctor then referred you to a Sleep Physician to be evaluated. You likely had a sleep study done at home or at a sleep facility. You were diagnosed as snoring and having OSA (Obstructive Sleep Apnea). Your Sleep Physician advised that you should use a CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) device since it is the ‘gold standard’ for treatment - but you tried and could not use it. You remain frustrated and exhausted because you know you still require the proper treatment tailored just for you.

Well, this was my story as well. After I tried and failed a CPAP machine trial, I was referred to a dentist for alternative treatment. The only difference was ... I am a dentist! With over 2000 hours of formal education and training to better understand OSA and other sleep related breathing disorders, I designed an oral appliance for myself. After extensive testing and evaluation, I uncovered the tremendous health benefits of using oral appliance therapy to provide an effective treatment for many Sleep Apnea patients such as myself.

This is how my rewarding journey began to help treat patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea like you and me, because I know the significant health risks of leaving this condition untreated.

We can provide the Sleep Physician Approved Snoring and Sleep Apnea Solution for many patients with OSA.

What Causes Snoring and Sleep Apnea? Watch this brief video to learn more about how our Treatment works and may Benefit You!

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)

Obstructive Sleep Apnea and snoring occur when there is an obstruction of airflow because the tongue and soft oral tissues relax while a person is sleeping.  This relaxation may completely block the flow of oxygen the body needs for survival. This will result in disruption during the sleeping cycle as the body arouses to correct the condition and allow oxygen flow to resume.

 
 

 

The “No Mask” Physician and Medical /Medicare Insurance Approved Snoring and Sleep Apnea Solution Alternative

A Properly Custom Designed Oral Appliance is a Medically Accepted form of Treatment

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) is considered the "Gold Standard" for the treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and if a patient is comfortable and regularly using their CPAP system then we strongly encourage them to continue to do so. However, with follow up studies showing that more than half the patients diagnosed to use a CPAP machine do not use it on a regular basis or even at all, it might be time to seek an effective alternative form of treatment approved and accepted by both sleep physicians and health insurance which has a much higher rate of acceptance by patients.  Having a CPAP unit sitting idly by and not being utilized is as dangerous as not having one at all!  The possible solution? A custom made oral appliance designed specifically for treating snoring and sleep apnea!

I no longer have to check my CPAP in when I travel, my husband is not complaining about my snoring, and I am not having sleepless nights like I was, fighting my CPAP. It’s been a lifesaver...
