Oral appliance therapy is a non-invasive treatment for mild to moderate sleep apnea and snoring. These custom-made devices are worn while you sleep and work by gently repositioning the lower jaw and tongue to keep your airway open. At DS Dental, we design appliances that fit comfortably and discreetly, ensuring you can breathe easily and sleep soundly. Patients often prefer oral appliances over CPAP machines because they are portable, quiet, and easy to use. With consistent wear, many patients experience significant improvements in sleep quality, reduced snoring, and better overall health.
Many people don’t realize they have sleep apnea, but the signs are often noticeable to both patients and their partners. Common symptoms include: ● Loud, chronic snoring ● Gasping or choking during sleep ● Daytime fatigue or drowsiness ● Morning headaches ● Difficulty concentrating ● Irritability or mood changes If you or a loved one experience these symptoms, it’s important to seek professional help. At DS Dental, we can work with your physician to confirm a diagnosis and recommend oral appliance therapy as a comfortable, effective treatment alternative to CPAP.
Sleep apnea is a common but serious condition in which breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep. Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), the most common form, occurs when throat muscles relax and block the airway. This can cause loud snoring, choking, and frequent awakenings, leaving you tired even after a full night’s sleep. Left untreated, sleep apnea increases the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, and depression. At DS Dental, we help patients in Burlington recognize the signs of sleep apnea and provide safe, effective treatments designed to improve both sleep quality and overall health.
