Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)

Throat muscles collapse during sleep, blocking airflow.

Central Sleep Apnea

The brain doesn’t send proper signals to the muscles that control breathing.

Complex (Mixed) Sleep Apnea

A combination of both types — often emerging after CPAP therapy.

frequently asked questions

What should I do if I have a dental emergency?

Sleep apnea is a sleep disorder where breathing repeatedly stops and starts, often causing loud snoring and disrupted sleep. At BOCO Dental and Prosthodontics, we offer customized oral appliances for sleep apnea. These devices help keep your airway open during sleep, providing a comfortable and effective alternative to CPAP machines for many patients.

What are the benefits of using an oral appliance for sleep apnea?

Oral appliances for sleep apnea are non-invasive, portable, and easy to use. They improve sleep quality by reducing snoring and preventing airway blockages. Many patients find these appliances more convenient and comfortable compared to traditional CPAP therapy, making them an excellent solution for managing mild to moderate sleep apnea.

How do I know if an oral appliance is right for my sleep apnea?

An oral appliance may be right for you if you have mild to moderate sleep apnea or struggle with CPAP compliance. During a consultation at BOCO Dental and Prosthodontics, our team will evaluate your condition and recommend the best treatment option tailored to your needs. We’ll also work with your physician to ensure a comprehensive approach to your care.
