The Dental Sleep Apnea Clinic provides treatment for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and primary snoring. Our services focus on oral appliance therapy (OAT), an effective alternative to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), in cases where CPAP is ruled out or not tolerated. Our dentists are board-certified and qualified through the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine (AADSM) to provide treatment in collaboration with patients’ primary care physicians, sleep physicians, and other health care professionals.
