Sleep Dental Appliances

Sleep-disordered breathing, including snoring and obstructive sleep apnea, can significantly impact your health, energy, and quality of life. At Pine Mountain Dental Care, we offer custom-fabricated oral appliances as a comfortable, effective, and non-invasive alternative to CPAP therapy for patients with mild to moderate sleep apnea or primary snoring.

These small, custom-fit devices are worn during sleep and work by gently repositioning the lower jaw slightly forward, which keeps the airway open and reduces obstruction. Unlike CPAP machines, oral appliances are silent, portable, easy to travel with, and require no mask or tubing — making them a popular option for patients who have difficulty tolerating CPAP.

The process begins with a comprehensive evaluation and, if needed, coordination with your sleep physician. We take precise impressions to fabricate an appliance that fits your mouth comfortably and precisely. Follow-up appointments ensure the device is adjusted properly for both effectiveness and comfort. Many patients experience significant improvement in sleep quality and daytime alertness after just a few weeks of use.
