Say goodbye to cumbersome CPAP machines and hello to the convenience and effectiveness of custom-made oral appliances. Opposed to forcing air into the throat to keep it open the oral appliance fits over the teeth in such a way that the lower jaw is gently shifted forward. This not only prevents disruptions to your sleep but can also eliminate snoring. Unlike over-the-counter devices, our oral appliances are custom-made to fit your unique needs and provide reliable results. Let our experts guide you to a better night's sleep with our easy-to-use oral appliance therapy in Glendale.
Advantages of Oral Appliance Therapy
Many sleep apnea patients prefer oral appliance therapy as opposed to other treatment methods because:
-
Unlike a CPAP machine, an oral appliance makes no noise that can disturb the wearer or their bed partner.
-
Using and maintaining a sleep appliance is much simpler and more affordable compared to a CPAP machine.
-
Sleep appliances are easy to travel with and can easily fit into virtually any bag, purse, or pocket.
-
Modern-day sleep appliances can be specifically designed for each patient to maximize their comfort and results.
Who Could Benefit from an Oral Appliance?
Oral appliance therapy is typically recommended for sleep apnea patients who:
-
Don’t like their CPAP machine
-
Use a CPAP machine but aren’t getting the results they want
-
Want to avoid sleep apnea surgery
-
Have undergone sleep apnea surgery but still struggle with sleep
-
Want an affordable and easy way to manage their condition
How Can You Get an Oral Appliance?
While there are many sleep apnea appliances available on the market today, the best way to get one that will actually help is to work with an experienced GoTo Sleep Center Glendale dentist. They undergo special training on how to provide appliances that reorient the jaws position during sleep in order to help patients stop snoring and overcome sleep apnea. A patient must be properly diagnosed with sleep apnea before this kind of appliance will be made available.
Custom-Made Solutions for Every Patient
We pride ourselves at GoTo Sleep Center Glendale because unlike other providers of oral appliances, we don’t simply take an impression of a patient’s teeth and send them home with an uncomfortable piece of plastic. Rather, we spend the time to fully understand a patients needs and use this knowledge to digitally design a custom appliance that fits perfectly and improves sleep.
