Benefits of using Oral Appliance Therapy
If a patient is prescribed to use Oral Appliance Therapy (as an alternative to CPAP) to treat their obstructive sleeping disorder, there are many benefits to this medically accepted treatment alternative.
What is an oral appliance? Worn only during sleep, an oral appliance fits like a sports mouth guard or an orthodontic retainer and usually goes over both the upper and lower teeth. It supports the lower jaw in a forward and slightly open position (the amount should be determined by a qualified dental professional) and this helps maintain an open the airway. Extensive medical research has shown that oral appliance therapy is an effective treatment option for patients with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea and snoring. *
