Transform your nights with Royal Oak Smiles' oral sleep solutions – because better sleep starts here!
Welcome to the blog of Royal Oak Smiles, where we prioritize not only your dental health but also your overall well-being, including quality sleep. Today, we delve into the benefits of oral sleep appliances, a revolutionary solution for those struggling with sleep apnea and snoring.
What is an Oral Sleep Appliance?
An oral sleep appliance, also known as a mandibular advancement device (MAD), is a custom-fitted device designed to help keep your airway open during sleep. It resembles a sports mouthguard and is worn in the mouth to reposition the jaw slightly forward. This adjustment prevents the soft tissues at the back of your throat from collapsing and obstructing your breathing, thereby reducing or eliminating sleep apnea and snoring.
Benefits of Oral Sleep Appliances
Effective Treatment: Oral sleep appliances are highly effective in treating mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and reducing snoring. They provide a non-invasive alternative to CPAP therapy, which many find cumbersome or uncomfortable.
Comfortable and Convenient: Unlike CPAP machines, which require a mask and tubing, oral appliances are compact, portable, and easy to wear. They fit snugly over your teeth and are custom-made for maximum comfort.
Improved Sleep Quality: By maintaining an open airway, oral sleep appliances promote better airflow and more restful sleep. This leads to improved daytime alertness, mood, and overall quality of life.
Customizable and Adjustable: Each oral appliance is customized to fit your mouth comfortably. Dr. Dolores Baran at Royal Oak Smiles will ensure a precise fit and may adjust the device over time to optimize its effectiveness.
Consistent Use: Oral appliances are often preferred by patients who struggle with CPAP compliance. Their ease of use encourages regular wear, leading to consistent treatment outcomes.
