The Benefits Of Sleep Apnea Treatment
Improved Sleep Quality
With effective sleep apnea treatment, you can enjoy uninterrupted sleep, waking up refreshed and energized. This improvement in sleep quality can have a profound impact on your daily life, enhancing your mood and overall well-being.
Reduced Health Risks
Treating sleep apnea reduces the risk of serious health issues such as heart disease, high blood pressure, and stroke. By addressing the root cause of interrupted breathing, you can protect your long-term health and enjoy a more active lifestyle.

Sleep apnea treatment helps eliminate daytime drowsiness, improving your focus and concentration. This means you can be more productive at work, enjoy activities with family and friends, and reduce the risk of accidents caused by fatigue.
The Sleep Apnea Treatment Process
Initial Consultation and Diagnosis
The first step in treating sleep apnea at Park Cedar Dentistry is a thorough consultation and diagnosis. During this appointment, Dr. Suttles or Dr. Snapp will discuss your symptoms, medical history, and any concerns you may have. They may recommend a sleep study to accurately diagnose the severity of your sleep apnea. This study can be conducted at home or in a sleep clinic, providing a detailed analysis of your sleep patterns and breathing interruptions. Based on the results, our team will develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
Customized Oral Appliance Therapy
For many patients, customized oral appliance therapy is an effective solution for sleep apnea. This involves creating a custom-fitted oral appliance that gently repositions the jaw to keep the airway open during sleep. Our dentists will take precise measurements and impressions of your teeth to ensure a comfortable fit. Once your appliance is ready, we will guide you on how to use and care for it. This non-invasive treatment option is convenient and portable, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a comfortable alternative to CPAP machines.
Ongoing Monitoring and Adjustments
After you begin using your oral appliance, regular follow-up appointments are essential to ensure its effectiveness. Our team will monitor your progress, making any necessary adjustments to optimize comfort and performance. We are committed to supporting you throughout your treatment journey, addressing any concerns and ensuring that you experience the maximum benefits of your sleep apnea treatment. By staying proactive and engaged, you can enjoy lasting relief from sleep apnea symptoms and a healthier, more restful night's sleep.
