Here’s What You Need to Know About Oral Appliance Therapy www.novicosmeticdentist.com
What Is Oral Appliance Therapy? In oral appliance therapy, a specially designed oral appliance is used to help keep the airway open while the patient sleeps. Dr. Ely can provide an oral appliance for sleep-related disorders, such as snoring or Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) if that is what your physician prescribes. This is an alternative to CPAP therapy.
What Causes Sleep- Related Breathing Disorders? When we sleep, our muscles start to relax. During this time, as the muscles relax, soft tissues such as those in our tongue tend to fall back toward the throat, partially or wholly covering the airway. When the airway is partially blocked or obstructed, it can cause you to snore while you sleep.
What to Expect During an Oral Appliance Consultation At Novi Oaks Dental, we understand how frustrating a chronic sleep-related breathing problem can feel. We also know just how hard it can be for many patients to take the first step to seek treatment. While snoring may often seem like a harmless habit, in reality, it can lead to numerous health risks if left untreated. Moreover, snoring and obstructive sleep apnea treatment may not always go as planned, and many patients are not satisfied with CPAP therapy.
