Without the use of drugs, invasive surgery or cumbersome devices, our dentists have a new cutting-edge tool to help relieve your snoring and sleep apnea.
Snoring and sleep apnea appliances are custom fitted to hold the jaw forward during the night so the airway does not tighten or collapse. These appliances are comfortable to wear and can be adjusted for your personal comfort and effectiveness.
Snoring
Snoring is caused by your jaw opening and your tongue falling into the back of your throat. This creates a very small opening for air to travel and creates vibrations in your throat.
Sleep Apnea
Obstructive Sleep Apnea is caused by the airway completely collapsing and when you to try to breath, the airway tightens even more. This continues until the brain partially awakens you. Without the use of drugs, invasive surgery or cumbersome devices, our dentists have a new cutting-edge tool to help relieve your snoring and obstructive sleep apnea.
SomnoDent® is a custom fit mandibular advancement device that treats obstructive sleep apnea by moving the lower jaw slightly forward. This forward movement keeps the airway open, preventing apneas. SomnoDent® is comfortable to wear and can be adjusted for your personal comfort and effectiveness.
