Why Sleep Apnoea Treatment Is Important

​

Sleep apnoea is a serious condition where breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep, often leading to disrupted rest, fatigue, and potential long-term health risks like heart disease and high blood pressure. Left untreated, it can significantly affect your quality of life and overall well-being.

​

Dental appliances and splints offer an effective, non-invasive treatment option for managing sleep apnoea and snoring. These devices help maintain an open airway during sleep, thereby allowing you to breathe comfortably and enjoy restful, uninterrupted sleep.

​

What to Expect with Sleep Apnoea Appliances and Splints

​

Sleep apnoea appliances are custom-designed to fit your mouth and address your specific needs.

 

The process of getting one involves:

1. Consultation and Assessment:

   • Our team will evaluate your symptoms and, if necessary, coordinate with a sleep specialist for a proper diagnosis.

   • We will discuss your treatment goals and determine if a dental appliance is the right solution for you.

2. Custom Design and Fitting:

   • Impressions of your teeth and jaw are taken to create a custom-fitted appliance tailored for maximum comfort and effectiveness.

   • The appliance is designed to reposition your jaw or tongue slightly forward, preventing airway collapse during sleep.

3. Follow-Up and Adjustments:

   • Once your appliance is ready, we’ll ensure it fits perfectly and functions properly.

   • Regular follow-ups are scheduled to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to improve effectiveness.

 

These appliances are discreet, portable, and easy to use, making them an excellent alternative to CPAP therapy for mild to moderate cases of sleep apnoea.

More Than Just Better Sleep

​

Sleep apnoea appliances do more than just improving your nightly rest. They offer a range of benefits that enhance your overall health and quality of life such as:

• Improved Energy: Restorative sleep reduces daytime fatigue and boosts mental clarity.

• Better Heart Health: Proper treatment lowers the risk of conditions like high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease.

• Reduced Snoring: Appliances not only help with sleep apnoea but also minimise snoring, improving sleep quality for both you and your partner.

• Convenience: Unlike CPAP machines, dental appliances are compact, quiet, and easy to travel with.
