Oral Appliance Therapy
At Yanagi Dental, oral appliance therapy can effectively solve snoring and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). This treatment involves wearing a custom-fit appliance over your teeth, similar to an orthodontic retainer, while you sleep. The appliance supports your jaw in a forward position, keeping your airway open to improve sleep quality, restore alertness, and improve overall health.
If you and your doctor determine that oral appliance therapy is the best course of action, your doctor will prescribe the treatment and refer you to a qualified dentist at Yanagi Dental. The dentist will create a custom-fit appliance for you and provide ongoing treatment to ensure it remains comfortable and effective.
