Constricted Airway
Anatomy of the tongue, jaws, nose, and face, decrease in muscle tension from hormonal changes, congested sinuses, and weight gain can all cause constricted airway. A constricted airway stops breathing or makes you breathe as if you were breathing through a coffee straw. This causes oxygen levels to drop, stressing your heart to beat much faster and harder to make up for the loss of oxygen, disturbances in sleep, and sometimes waking up at night.
Oral Sleep Appliance
Oral Sleep Appliance gently holds your lower jaw forward while sleeping, which allows for an open airway.

Sleep Apnea Treatment
Are you tired of constantly being tired? Have you noticed someone snoring at night, choking while sleeping, or waking up out of breath? An estimated 18 million Americans have Sleep Apnea, and 80-90% remain undiagnosed. Undiagnosed Airway Problems such as Sleep Apnea or Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome can impact productivity and quality of life, cause significant health problems, and increase risks of serious health conditions.
Dental Sleep Medicine is the treatment of Airway Problems using Oral Sleep Appliances. Oral sleep appliances are equally effective and much more comfortable than the often not-used and awkward CPAP machines.
