Treatment for Sleep Apnea

What causes Sleep Apnea?  Before we discuss treatment, we need to review a normal airway.

In a Normal Airway, the soft tissues of the throat are open, allowing the patient to inhale and exhale without difficulty.

Now we can look at the airway during an Apneic Event of Sleep Apnea.

The Alternative to CPAP, Oral Appliance Therapy (Dental Mouthpiece), opens the airway by supportin the lower jaw and tongue. It can fit in the palm of your hand.

Most people with sleep apnea are unaware they have it; they also don’t understand how sleep apnea is ruining their quality of life. Sleep apnea saps your energy and can cause numerous health problems that can not only reduce your quality of life, but also steal years of your life.  Click here for Signs & Symptoms associated with Sleep Apnea.

When we consider the expense and time wasted to care for conditions that might be preventable, we find that people with untreated Sleep Apnea use medical resources at THREE TIMES the rate of healthy people.
