Oral Appliance Therapy and Sleep Apnea

Oral Appliance Therapy and Sleep Apnea

Oral appliance therapy (OAT) is an easy, comfortable, and effective treatment for snoring and obstructive sleep apnea. The patient will wear a removable oral appliance in their mouth as they sleep. This appliance prevents the airway from collapsing by holding the patient’s tongue or supporting the jaw during sleep.

By using OAT to treat sleep apnea, patients can reduce their risks for mental fog, emotional instability, heart disease, diabetes, and stroke.
