Oral appliances are very effective for many patients with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Sleep apnea treatment in New Orleans can be easy and comfortable with oral appliance therapy at NOLA Dentures and General Dentistry.
How Do Oral Appliances Work?
Oral appliances are custom-fitted devices that gently reposition your jaw and tongue to keep your airway open while you sleep. These appliances prevent airway collapse, reduce snoring and breathing interruptions, and help you get a deeper, more restful sleep.
Who Can Benefit from Oral Appliance Therapy?
Oral appliances are especially effective for patients with:
- Mild to moderate sleep apnea – Studies show they significantly improve airflow for many people.
- CPAP intolerance – An oral appliance may be a more convenient alternative if you find a CPAP machine uncomfortable, noisy, or hard to use.
- Frequent travel needs – Oral appliances are small, portable, and easy to take on the go, unlike bulky CPAP machines.
