Sleep Apnea

We develop mouth guards for patients with sleep apnea to open their air passageways and minimize snoring. Sleep apnea occurs when throat tissues change. These changes are natural and happen over time, but they can cause tissues to constrict, contract, and become abnormally obstructed. When this happens, heavy snoring and breathing problems often follow. Mouth guards carefully and gently reset the jaw to a better position, which allows throat muscles and tissues to relax. They are often preferred by patients over CPAP machines because they are easy to put in and take out, don't make noise, and use less space.

At Cosmetic and Implant Dentistry Westport, patient comfort and security are among our top priorities. Treatments are more successful when the patient can feel open and honest. Sleep conditions can be difficult to discuss. Our team is warm, kind, and compassionate. They've helped patients get treatment for many oral and dental-related conditions. If you think you have sleep apnea, we will examine your throat using X-ray technology and talk with you about the results. If needed, we can recommend you to other specialists like ENTs to get you the care you need. We aim to get you the treatments you need quickly so you can sleep well and stay secure throughout the night.
