What Is Sleep Apnea?

Obstructive sleep apnea, or OSA, is characterized by continual pauses in breathing during sleep. These breathing patterns can prevent sufficient oxygen from reaching the brain and result in uncomfortable symptoms. Sleep apnea can also contribute to serious health conditions including severe fatigue, hypertension, weight gain, memory loss, and altered mood.

What Treatments Are Available For Sleep Apnea?

If you're suffering from the symptoms of sleep apnea, you're not alone. Our team is here to assess your symptoms and coordinate treatment with a sleep specialist to ensure you get the treatment you need! We're also happy to provide custom mouthguards to help ease your symptoms.

The CPAP machine has traditionally been the gold standard for sleep apnea treatment. While they are highly effective when used properly, many patients find CPAP machines bulky and invasive. Fortunately, Beelman Dental provides a more comfortable alternative in the form of oral appliance therapy!

Oral appliance therapy uses a custom-designed, individually fitted oral appliance that is worn like a mouthguard during sleep. By protecting the teeth and lower jaw, the appliance helps airways stay open during sleep and encourages comfortable breathing overnight. The simple, non-invasive solution is known to dramatically improve patients' quality of sleep and quality of life!

No matter what sleep apnea treatment you require, the team at Beelman Dental will be there for you every step of the way!
