What is the best treatment for sleep apnea?
The most effective treatment for sleep apnea depends on your individual needs and the severity of your condition. A sleep study, ordered and signed by a physician, can help diagnose and determine the severity of sleep apnea. If you have mild to moderate oral sleep apnea, an oral sleep appliance may be a highly effective treatment, in addition to other lifestyle modification such as diet and sleep hygiene. If your case is more severe, there may be additional treatment recommendations to help you achieve the best results, such as CPAP therapy or surgery.
What are the warning signs or symptoms of sleep apnea?
Some of the common signs/symptoms associated with sleep apnea include:

  • Loud snoring
  • Drowsiness while driving
  • Restless sleep
  • Waking with a choking/gasping sensation
  • Waking with a dry/sore throat
  • Sleepiness or lack of energy during the day
  • Morning headaches
  • Forgetfulness and mood swings
  • Decreased libido 

The best way to find out if you have sleep apnea is to undergo a sleep study. Sleep studies, whether conducted in a facility or at home, will record data such as oxygen levels, brain activity, and muscle movement, and a physician will be able to determine if you have sleep apnea. Once diagnosed, your physician will refer you for oral appliance therapy or other necessary treatments.

How much does oral appliance therapy cost?
Oral appliance therapy is considered a medical expense, and therefore medical insurance plans can be applied. Depending on your insurance coverage, oral appliance therapy may be partially or fully reimbursed with proper documentation in place. We ask for your medical insurance information prior to scheduling a consultation so we can figure out insurance/out-of-pocket estimates and give patients an accurate expectation of treatment costs.
