DON'T IGNORE THE SNORE
It's time to sleep healthy.
SLEEP APNEA CAN BE DANGEROUS
Sleep Healthy Dental Solutions Can Help!
If you have chronic snoring, there's a good possibility you have sleep apnea. Sleep apnea is a disorder that occurs when you have interrupted breathing while you sleep. These breathing lapses result in poor sleep quality and reduce the oxygen supply to your body, resulting in serious health risks. Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) affects 2-9% of adults and is more common than many people realize. OSA often goes undiagnosed or untreated, and is associated with many cardiovascular issues such as high blood pressure, heart attack, heart disease, and stroke, as well other physical, mental and emotional problems.
Dr. Augustine, our general dentist and resident sleep expert, offers a dental appliance to treat sleep apnea. Similar to a retainer or mouthguard, the purpose of this appliance is to support the jaw and prevent your tongue from sliding and blocking your airway while you sleep. The result is a safe, secure, and restful night’s sleep.

A DENTAL ALTERNATIVE TO CPAPIf you are used to dealing with a CPAP machine, you know firsthand how cumbersome and irritating they can be. However, before you give up on quality sleep altogether, we want you to know there are other options. Sleep Healthy Dental Solutions involve at-home sleep tests and comfortable oral appliances to open up your airway without the discomfort and disruption of forced air and bulky equipment.

"I have had the Moses mouth/snore guard for a year and have never slept better. Before the Moses, I was very drowsy throughout the day. I woke up several times throughout the night. Now, I sleep through the night and feel refreshed in the morning. It is comfortable and I never take it out throughout the night. The Moses has changed my life for the better! It is worth every penny I spent on it. I highly recommend it to anyone!" - Marcia G.
