I Chronically Snore

Snoring isn’t always a sign of deeper sleep problems – maybe your sinuses are stuffed up or you simply enjoyed an alcoholic drink before bed, for example. However, if you snore more often than not, then your condition could very well be chronic. It’s possible that oral tissue is obstructing your airway while you rest, changing how air moves through your lungs and resulting in the deep, rolling sound we know as snoring. If this is the case, oral appliance therapy could open up your airway, giving you more room to breathe – and eliminating your chronic snoring!

I Need Sleep Apnea Treatment

If you took a formal sleep test and were told you have obstructive sleep apnea, you’re looking in the right place for treatment! When you schedule a consultation with your sleep dentist in North Bethesda, Dr. Greenbaum will evaluate your sleep test results and talk with you about your symptoms. Once he’s more familiar with your unique needs and preferences, he’ll create a personalized treatment plan for managing your sleep apnea and getting the good night’s rest you deserve.

I’m Interested in Oral Appliance Therapy

During oral appliance therapy, you’ll wear a customized, mouthguard like device every night while you rest. The oral appliance will shift your jaw forward, opening up your airway so you can breathe more easily and sleep without interruption. It will also protect your pearly whites from damaging habits like teeth grinding and clenching. No two patients with obstructive sleep apnea have the same oral structure, so make no mistake – it’s very important for an appliance to be 100% personalized by a qualified sleep dentist!

I Don’t Use My CPAP Machine

We completely understand. Many of our patients visit our sleep center near North Bethesda because they’re hoping to find a CPAP alternative. These machines often do help those with obstructive sleep apnea breathe easier at night but can also be noisy and difficult to pack for travel. You’ll be happy to know that our oral appliances can be just as effective as CPAP, are low-profile, and can easily fit in your pocket, purse, or suitcase. Give us a call today, and we’ll be happy to help you determine whether oral appliance therapy can replace your CPAP machine!
