Why Sleep Dentistry?

Sleep dentistry can be life-changing. Problems like sleep apnea can cause significant problems with your dental health and your overall physical health. If left untreated, sleep apnea can result in many health problems, including but not limited to:

  • High blood pressure
  • Stroke
  • Heart failure, heart attack, irregular heartbeat
  • Diabetes
  • Depression

There are many benefits to using sleep dentistry as part of your dental routine, including:

  • It can improve the quality of your sleep and overall health.
  • Most options are non-invasive, discreet, and affordable.
Why Sleep Dentistry?

What to Expect

If you experience morning headaches, fatigue, or difficulty concentrating, you may have interrupted sleep patterns associated with sleep apnea. We believe that teamwork between you, your physician, and your dentist is essential to implementing an effective individualized treatment plan for your sleep disorder.

Before Treatment

People snore because the air moving through the nasal passage is affected by a blockage, either through the nose or the mouth, which causes the snoring noise. When the airway is blocked, it takes more effort to draw air in, making it harder to breathe. Some people even stop breathing (apneic event) for a few seconds. This is called sleep apnea.

Finding out what dental sleep disorder you may have is extremely important before you begin receiving treatment using sleep dentistry.

During Treatment

A custom-fitted oral appliance or mouthpiece should be worn by most people who snore or have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

The mouthpiece adjusts your bottom jaw forward to make more room at the back of the throat. This helps keep the airway open, causing less obstruction, minimizing snoring and sleep apnea.

Other treatment options that can be explored during your treatment are:

  • Adjust sleeping position
  • Continuous positive air pressure (CPAP)
  • Surgery. Removal of tonsils and soft palate typically when other treatment options are unsuccessful.
There are many types of sleep apnea oral appliances approved by the FDA. The success rate is quite high when using oral appliances. For severe OSA, CPAP is the most effective treatment option. 
After Treatment

Once you have been treated using sleep dentistry, you will need to continually follow up with your physician and sleep dentist in one of our New York dental offices.

Your First Visit

Your first visit is perhaps the most important when you are being evaluated for options to help your dental sleep disorder. You will have a consultation with the dentist or dental sleep medicine expert to figure out which treatment option is best. Having a regular dental checkup is also recommended before you have your first visit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is at risk for sleep apnea?

Anyone, regardless of age, can have sleep apnea. However, some of the top risk factors are:

  • A person over 40
  • A person who is overweight
  • A person with large tonsils, a small jaw, or a large tongue
  • A family history of sleep apnea
What are the benefits of oral appliances to treat dental sleep disorders?

Portability – Because they are small and lightweight and do not require electricity or batteries, oral anti-snoring appliances are excellent for travel where CPAP machines can be bulky and take up space.

Comfort – For mild to moderate OSA, oral appliances are just as effective as CPAP therapy and more comfortable.

Low Maintenance - Mouthpieces are low-maintenance, with no replacement parts and no need for re-ordering supplies.

Quiet – Oral appliances are silent, unlike the CPAP.

Discreet – Since the appliance is worn at night, there is no stigma associated with a treatment or disease.

Affordable – While most insurance companies cover both the CPAP and dental oral appliances for sleep apnea, the oral appliance is often more affordable.

Long-term results – In most cases, the oral appliance treatment option has excellent long-term results, since most people continue to use them because they are comfortable, convenient, affordable and discreet.

What is dental sleep therapy?

Dental sleep therapy is a type of dental practice that helps treat breathing sleep disorders such as sleep apnea. It can also be used to decrease snoring.

How do you get an oral appliance for sleep apnea?

To get an oral appliance for sleep apnea, you need to be evaluated by a sleep physician and a dentist. This evaluation will help your care team understand what type of sleep disorder you have and what treatment will best fit your needs. You should also get fitted for the oral appliance by a dentist trained in oral appliance therapy.
