Improving Your Sleep and Health
Dental sleep medicine focuses on treating sleep-related breathing disorders, such as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Sleep apnea occurs when your airway becomes blocked during sleep, causing interruptions in breathing. This can lead to poor-quality sleep and impact your overall health, increasing the risk of issues like high blood pressure, heart disease, and fatigue.
Dental Solutions for Sleep Wellness
At River Oaks Dental, we offer solutions to help you achieve restful, healthy sleep. For many patients, a custom-made oral appliance can be an effective treatment for sleep apnea. These devices gently reposition the jaw to keep your airway open, providing a comfortable and non-invasive alternative to traditional CPAP therapy.
Our caring team can evaluate your condition, begin treatment, or refer you to a sleep specialist for further assessment if needed. We’re committed to helping you find the best solution for better sleep and overall well-being.
