Does it seem like it’s been a long time since you got a really good night’s rest? It’s possible you have sleep apnea.

Sleep apnea can only be accurately diagnosed through a professional sleep study, performed by a sleep physician. Once you have been given that diagnosis, you may have several options for treating it.

Ideally, your physician will work in collaboration with other medical professionals to improve your outcome — including a prosthodontist. As a prosthodontist, I can assess your oral health and, if appropriate, provide custom-designed dental appliances as an altnerative to the common CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) machines that many patients find uncomfortable to use.
