High blood pressure
Heart disease
Stroke
Diabetes
Depression and anxiety
Getting proper treatment can improve both your sleep and your long-term health.

What to Expect
1. Consultation & Evaluation
We’ll discuss your symptoms, health history, and previous sleep testing to determine whether oral appliance therapy may be right for you. During your evaluation, we also use advanced sonar technology to help detect airway blockage and identify areas that may be contributing to sleep-disordered breathing. This technology allows us to better understand your airway and create a more personalized treatment plan.
2. Custom Appliance Creation
Digital scans or impressions are taken to create a custom-fitted oral appliance designed specifically for your mouth.
3. Fitting & Adjustments
Once your appliance is ready, we’ll ensure it fits comfortably and make any needed adjustments for optimal results.
4. Better Sleep
With consistent use, many patients experience improved sleep quality, reduced snoring, and increased daytime energy.
Is Oral Appliance Therapy Right for You?
Mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea
CPAP intolerance
Chronic snoring

INSURANCE & COVERAGE
Many patients are surprised to learn that sleep apnea treatment is typically covered under medical insurance rather than dental insurance. Because obstructive sleep apnea is considered a medical condition, oral appliance therapy is generally billed through your medical benefits.
We understand that insurance can feel confusing, and we’re here to help make the process as simple and stress-free as possible.
