The Benefits of Oral Appliance Therapy

Sleep apnea is a frustrating condition that can affect your overall health and leave you feeling tired.  While CPAP machines are commonly used to treat sleep apnea, patients often find them to be uncomfortable.  Oral appliance therapy is an effective alternative treatment that allows patients to correct obstructive sleep apnea in a way that is both comfortable and convenient.

Here are a few of the benefits to this alternative treatment:tap3

Respire Medical meets needs of sleep apnea patients through breakthrough dental appliance science

Until recently, people who suffered from snoring, a symptom of a serious condition known as Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)were able to solve most sleep apnea related problems through the use of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) devices.   Although effective, these expensive, bulky and uncomfortable devices, solved one problem with another. Users of CPAP devices no longer suffered from sleep apnea, instead they were couldn’t sleep for other reasons.  For many, sleeping comfortably entails some degree of movement, which CPAP devices inhibit.
