These choices represent the pinnacle of sleep apnea treatment, delivering unparalleled results and revolutionizing the way sleep disorders are managed.
APAP THERAPY
APAP, short for Auto-Pressure Adjusting Positive Airway Pressure therapy, is a treatment method for Sleep Apnea that offers several benefits compared to other therapies. One notable advantage of APAP is its ability to automatically adjust the pressure levels throughout the night based on an individual's breath-by-breath needs. Overall, APAP therapy provides a more tailored and comfortable experience, improving sleep apnea patients' treatment outcomes.
CPAP Therapy
PAP therapy is the “Gold Standard” and most common treatment for Obstructive Sleep Apnea. CPAP, also known as Continuous Positive Airway Pressure, delivers a steady flow of filtered room temperature air. This keeps the the airway open throughout the night allowing you to breathe normal and obtain a proper blood oxygen level.
Oral Appliance Therapy
Patients with mild to moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnea may be eligible to wear an oral appliance for therapy. The oral appliance works by moving your lower jaw forward, which prevents obstruction to the airway. OAT may be used in combination with CPAP therapy or as an alternative to patients who cannot tolerate CPAP. To be considered for an oral appliance, you must make an appointment with a dentist.
