\"SnoringWhen it comes to getting a good night\u2019s sleep – for sleep apnea sufferers – the struggle is real. Even if you receive an accurate diagnosis, you may end up with the less-than-ideal CPAP system for treatment. Unfortunately, the majority of sleep apnea sufferers are deemed CPAP intolerant. However, you may be able to find an effective treatment in an unlikely place – the dentist\u2019s office. That\u2019s right dentists offer a wide range of sleep apnea appliances to help patients breathe deeply and sleep soundly. One of the most effective <\/span>apnea appliances<\/span><\/a> on the market is the Oasys Herbst device. <\/span>
\n<\/p>\n

What is Sleep Apnea? <\/span><\/h2>\n

Sleep apnea is the cessation of breathing for ten or more seconds at a time during sleep. This can occur due to miscommunication between the head and body, but this form of apnea, central sleep apnea, is very rare. The more common form is known as obstructive sleep apnea, and as the name implies, it occurs due to a physical blockage of the airway. This is the type of sleep apnea that can be treated using a custom oral appliance from your trusted dentistry office. <\/span><\/p>\n

How do Dentists Help with Sleep Apnea? <\/span><\/h2>\n

Dentists have advanced training in how the oral and facial structures work together to allow patients to chew, breathe, speak, and smile. That includes a complete understanding of the airway system. For this reason, dentists are ideal practitioners to assist patients with treatment for obstructive sleep apnea. Specifically, dentists offer patients oral appliance therapy to reposition the jaw forward, placing pressure on the throat and keeping the airway clear during sleep. There are a wide range of oral appliances, and a skilled dentist will help you find the best one to treat your specific sleep apnea needs. <\/span><\/p>\n

What Makes the Oasys Herbst Appliance so Unique? <\/span><\/h2>\n

Unlike other oral appliances that only serve as a mandibular repositioning tool to open the blocked airway, the Oasys Herbst appliance is also indicated for use as a nasal dilator. That means it addresses both obstructions of the airway in the throat and opens the nasal sinuses. For this reason, patients can use the Oasys Herbst appliance to treat snoring, sleep apnea, and upper airway resistance syndrome. This versatile oral appliance is comfortable and proven effective in improving sleep for the majority of patients who choose this sleep apnea device. <\/span><\/p>\n
