Sound too good to be true?
Millions of people have discovered how better sleep increases the quality of their days and nights.
Now, it’s your turn to sleep and feel better.
Solve Your Sleep Problems
Nothing feels better than a sound night’s rest. The sunshine feels warmer, your coffee tastes stronger, and your feet hit the floor with more purpose. Sleep facilitates a complex blend of restorative functions from head to toe. And your emotional and physical well-being are dramatically affected by the quantity and quality of sleep.
Over 40 million Americans suffer from sleep disorders, and these conditions produce life-threatening stress throughout the body. Worse, 80% of them don’t even know what’s happening. They feel tired, depressed, agitated, and frustrated, and they can’t figure out why. To compound the threat, studies show that untreated sleep disorders can reduce your lifespan by ten or more years.
What About Snoring?
Snoring is not a laughing matter. 7 out of 10 snorers suffer from an underlying sleep disorder with hundreds of disruptions to their sleep every night. Studies show that divorce rates amongst snorers are higher than average, too.
A snoring sleep partner can produce decibel levels similar to a vacuum cleaner. This dull roar often leads to insomnia, stress, and a lack of sexual intimacy. Snoring often disrupts more than one person with emotional and physical effects for everyone in the room.
An Alternative To CPAP
In 2015, the American Academy of Sleep Medicine published comprehensive guidelines for Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) treatment with oral appliances. Any patient who is intolerant of CPAP or requests alternate treatment should be prescribed an oral appliance.
Properly calibrated oral appliances help position the jaw precisely to maintain an open airway throughout the night. This interceptive technique allows breathing the same way we experience during the day. Blood oxygen levels stay in a healthy range, and snoring usually diminishes. Many people tolerate oral appliances better than CPAP and experience much higher compliance rates
