In addition to repeatedly stopping and starting interrupted breathing when you sleep, you may notice other signs of obstructive sleep apnea. These signs include:
When you stop breathing in your sleep, you experience inflammation through increased blood pressure and heart rate. If you are diagnosed with sleep apnea, you need to act. Left untreated, it can cause severe damage to your body over time and increase your risk of premature death.
Sleep apnea is closely associated with serious health conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, stroke, asthma, hypertension, and much more. Sleep apnea also interferes with your mood, concentration, and restfulness. These put you at risk of getting into an accident while driving, developing a mood disorder like anxiety or depression, and developing cognitive problems.
No Mask! No Tubes! No Surgery! No Problem!
Dr. McRay and Dr. Robbins are committed to helping our patients like you get answers to their sleep and find the energy and health you so desperately need. We know first-hand how draining sleep apnea's effects can be and how dreadful the thought of sleeping with a CPAP can feel.
That’s why we offer Oral Appliance Therapy, a life-changing CPAP alternative that works for nearly all people suffering from mild to moderate sleep apnea. Our appliances are designed to open and position the jaw optimally during sleep, eliminating the risk of tissue sagging and blocking the airway. This, in turn, prevents OSA and allows you to get a healthy, restful night of sleep.
Treating sleep apnea shouldn’t be a difficult experience. We are proud to provide our patients with an effective treatment for sleep apnea. It is a comfortable, non-invasive, and simple treatment that allows patients to sleep soundly without a CPAP machine.
An oral appliance has a slim profile-much like an orthodontic retainer- and keeps your airway open while you sleep, allowing you to breathe without interruption. Ready for more great news? Your medical insurance typically covers Oral Appliance Therapy.
By accepting flexible payment plans, we make treating your Sleep Apnea and Snoring affordable.
With no parts, filters, or cleaning supplies required, our oral appliances have lower long-term costs than CPAP.
No insurance? No problem! We routinely work with our patients to help get treatment off and running to fit your budget so you can relax and "sleep" better, knowing we've got great options for you to choose from.
Many patients start with our Online Sleep Assessment. This comprehensive questionnaire will provide us with background information and help us formulate a plan forward.
An airway evaluation and take-home sleep test is the next step. It measures your sleep activity, including how often you pause your breath while asleep and any snoring. This provides us with the data needed to treat your sleep apnea effectively.
We will have our dedicated physician score and diagnose your results. If you're a candidate for oral appliance therapy, we will perform 3D scans of your bite and teeth to order your custom appliance.
Once your treatment path has been determined, BSB will fit you, build your Oral Device, and continually support your health journey.
Call! Click! Connect! Let’s make your sleep count! The solution to your sleep apnea may be as easy as wearing a custom oral appliance when you sleep.
