Could It Be Sleep Apnea?
Common Signs Worth Talking To A Professional About
These symptoms are common but not a diagnosis. Only a licensed physician can diagnose obstructive sleep apnea, typically with a sleep study.
Loud, frequent snoring
Snoring that disrupts your sleep — or your partner’s — night after night.
Gasping or pauses in breathing
Choking, gasping, or breathing that stops and starts during sleep.
Daytime fatigue
Feeling unrefreshed or drowsy during the day, even after a full night in bed.
Morning headaches
Waking with headaches or a dry, sore throat on a regular basis.
Trouble focusing
Difficulty concentrating, memory lapses, or irritability through the day.
CPAP you don't use
A CPAP machine that ends up in the closet because it’s hard to tolerate.
Oral Appliance Therapy
A CPAP Alternative That Fits In The Palm Of Your Hand
An oral appliance is a custom-made device — a little like a retainer — that you wear only while you sleep. It gently supports your jaw to help keep your airway open, which can reduce snoring and the interruptions caused by obstructive sleep apnea.
Oral appliance therapy is FDA-cleared and recognized by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine as a treatment option for mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea and for people who cannot tolerate CPAP. Whether it’s right for you depends on your diagnosis — something we’ll talk through together.
- No mask, hose, or electricity — quiet and travel-friendly
- Custom-fit for comfort and a secure feel
- Easy to clean and simple to care for
