What is sleep apnea?

Regular Breathing

When you breathe while sleeping, air enters your mouth and nose and freely passes through the back of your throat and into your lungs.


Sleep Apnea Breathing

Sleep Apnea is characterized by loud or heavy snoring interrupted by the stopping of breathing for more than 10 seconds. The word “apnea” literally means “without breath.” It occurs when the muscles and tissues in the back of your throat relax and collapse your airway while you sleep. Snoring occurs when air attempts to pass through this collapsed airway causing the tissues to vibrate but when the airflow is severely disrupted your breathing stops for a few seconds until your body responds by waking you up.

Treatment Options

We have simple solutions and we have alternatives.

There are only 2 FDA cleared products that will help to eliminate or reduce sleep apnea by opening the blocked airway in the back of your throat, a simple in-mouth oral appliance or a CPAP machine.

CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) is pressurized air from a bedside machine, delivered through a tube that connects to a mask that covers the nose. The air forces and maintains the airway open while you sleep.

Oral Appliance Therapy is completely non-invasive, comfortable and painless. It is a mouthpiece, for patients with primary snoring or mild to moderate Sleep Apnea. It works by repositioning your jaw forward preventing the muscles at the back of your throat from collapsing, keeping your airway open to allow adequate air intake.

Health Risks of Obstructive Sleep Apnea

People with corona virus almost always have pre-existing obstructive sleep apnea. Cardiovascular and respiratory conditions cause people to be more liable for Covid-19–are typical symptoms of sleep apnea. Getting treated for sleep apnea can help get through this crisis.

Untreated, sleep apnea can cause:

  • Premature Death
  • Drug resistant high blood pressure
  • Cardiovascular disease
  • Memory problems
  • Obesity
  • Impotency
  • Headaches
