What is Sleep Dentistry?

Sleep Dentistry, or Dental Sleep Medicine, focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of sleep-related breathing conditions such as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

Oral appliance therapy may help patients:

• Naturally open the airway
• Reduce chronic snoring and nighttime breathing interruptions

• Avoid surgery or continuous CPAP use (when appropriate)
