TREATMENT

    The most common treatment for sleep apnea and snoring utilizes continuous positive air pressure (CPAP) devices. Unfortunately this treatment option is often found to be intolerably uncomfortable for many users.

    Treatment can also be accomplished with surgery to the soft palate, tongue and even facial bones. These invasive techniques are primarily used in severe cases when no other options are viable.

    Recent advancements in sleep technology have led to viable, low cost, non-invasive alternative treatment options. Oral appliances are small plastic devices, worn in the mouth, similar to orthodontic retainers or sports mouthguards. Oral appliance therapy involves the selection, designing, fitting and use of a specially designed device that, when worn during sleep, maintains an opened, unobstructed airway in the throat.

Various Oral appliances

Watch-PAT 100
This device is worn on the wrist and uses a non-invasive finger mounted pneu-optical probe to measure the PAT signal. The Watch-PAT offers physicians a new option for patient-friendly, unattended first line diagnostic evaluation of sleep related breathing disorders.

Acoustic Rhinometer
By providing a graphic map of your nasal topography, this device clearly displays points of obstruction, degree of obstruction, and the impact the obstruction has on air flow. Completely non-invasive the Rhinometer allows for fast and easy measurement of nasal patency.

Pharyngometer
Similar to the rhinometer, this device uses SONAR to measure the diameter of the airway in the throat and provides a detailed architecture of airflow. It can easily determine the effects of jaw repositioning on overall airflow and is therefore a good tool for measuring the effectiveness of oral appliances.
