Mandibular Advancement Device

For some patients experiencing obstructive sleep apnea, your sleep
physician may recommend an oral sleep appliance to help alleviate the
underlying symptoms and complications associated with it. Symptoms of sleep
apnea can include excessive daytime sleepiness, depression, high blood
pressure, and nighttime teeth grinding.

A sleep appliance is a device that is worn in the mouth overnight, designed
to position the lower jaw slightly forward , thereby bringing the tongue
forward, and expanding the throat in a way that keeps your airway open to
facilitate unobstructed breathing while you are asleep.  There are several
designs and styles of sleep appliances available to assist with treatment,
all capable of being custom fitted to the contours of your mouth.

Given the potentially dangerous complications arising from untreated sleep
apnea, it is critical to work closely with your dentist to develop a
treatment plan that meets your unique needs and promotes your overall
health."
