Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Holistic Treatment for OSA
Obstructive sleep apnea is a sleep disorder characterized by repeated episodes of partial or complete obstruction of the upper airway during sleep. These obstructions can lead to pauses in your breathing and a decrease in your oxygen levels, resulting in fragmented sleep patterns and a range of associated symptoms, including excessive daytime sleepiness, loud snoring, morning headaches, and poor concentration.
As a Holistic Dentist, I specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of various oral conditions, including obstructive sleep apnea. Holistic Dental treatment can provide effective relief for certain cases of OSA, particularly in mild to moderate cases or for patients who cannot tolerate continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy.
Our Holistic appliances are custom-made to fit your mouth and are designed to position your jaw and tongue in a way that helps keep the airway open during sleep.
By wearing an oral appliance while you sleep, the device helps prevent the collapse or narrowing of the upper airway by moving the lower jaw and tongue forward slightly. This forward movement helps maintain an open and unobstructed airway, allowing for better airflow and reducing the occurrence of apnea episodes and associated symptoms.
It is important to note that the use of Holistic oral appliance therapy for OSA requires a comprehensive evaluation and proper fitting by a qualified holistic dentist. During your consultation, we will assess your oral health, jaw structure, and other relevant factors to determine if this is a suitable treatment option for you.
While oral appliances can be highly effective for many individuals with OSA, they may not be the appropriate solution for everyone. In some cases, a combination of treatment modalities may be recommended, such as lifestyle changes, weight management, positional therapy, or in more severe cases, a referral to a sleep specialist for further evaluation and consideration of alternative treatments like CPAP therapy or surgery.
We would be more than happy to schedule an appointment for you to further discuss your OSA diagnosis, assess your suitability for holistic oral appliance therapy, and address any questions or concerns you may have. Our goal is to work together to find the most effective treatment plan to improve your sleep quality, overall health, and quality of life.
