Find Help With Your Sleep Apnea Problems

Sleep apnea is a serious condition. It disrupts breathing patterns during the night, causing you to wake up frequently without you even realizing. If you or someone you know struggles with snoring, waking up gasping for air, frequent headaches, or daytime fatigue, you are showing signs of this sleep disorder.

Fortunately, we can help. While many people turn to CPAP machines to relieve symptoms, we can offer you a less invasive alternative. A custom oral appliance will gently push your jaw forward, so your airways stay open at night. It's that simple! You'll experience numerous benefits:

  • Comfortable Fit - Dr. Lee will use a digital scanner to capture impressions of your teeth. This information is used to create your appliance. It will fit you perfectly, allowing you to wear it without disruption throughout the night.
  • Non-Invasive Solution - Unlike some other sleep apnea treatments, a custom oral appliance is non-invasive. You won't have to deal with a cumbersome mask and equipment like you do with a CPAP.
  • Easy to Use - All you do for your oral appliance is wear it while you sleep. Because it's so easy to use, you are more likely to wear it, improving its effectiveness. In addition, no special cleaning routine is required. Simply clean it gently with a soft-bristled toothbrush.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sleep Apnea

What is sleep apnea?
Sleep apnea occurs when you repeatedly stop breathing while sleeping. It is caused by your air passages becoming blocked by your tongue and other soft tissues in the back of your throat. When they block your airway, you stop breathing for a few seconds before waking up briefly to take in more air. The sleep apnea cycle can repeat itself hundreds of times per night in severe sleep apnea sufferers.
Why is sleep apnea bad?
Sleep apnea is a serious condition because it interrupts critical airflow while sleeping. It can leave you feeling lethargic during the day and interfere with your work productivity and your personal life. In addition, sleep apnea has been linked to serious health conditions like high blood pressure, heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, and depression.
How is sleep apnea treated?
If you receive a sleep apnea diagnosis, our practice will take impressions and have a custom-fit sleep apnea appliance made for you to wear while sleeping. It will gently move your lower jaw forward to help keep your airway open. It can reduce or stop snoring. You'll sleep better, feel better, and improve your overall health.
Are there alternatives to a CPAP?

Yes. For patients seeking alternatives to CPAP therapy, custom dental appliances - such as snore guards or oral appliance therapy (OAT) - are highly effective options. These custom-fit devices comfortably support the jaw in a forward position to help keep the airway open during sleep.

How effective are oral appliances compared to CPAP?

Oral appliances are highly effective for patients with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea. While CPAP remains the gold standard for severe cases, clinical studies show that oral appliances have a much higher rate of long-term compliance because patients find them significantly more comfortable and easier to travel with.
