Non-Invasive Sleep Apnea Treatment
At Great Smiles Dental Care, Dr. Wendelschafer provides custom oral appliances to help patients manage obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The device works by gently moving the lower jaw forward to maintain adequate airflow during sleep.
Patients can expect to sleep better and wake up feeling refreshed, and to snore less or not at all. It�s a comfortable, non-invasive alternative to CPAP machines.
Why Treatment Matters
Untreated sleep apnea connects to serious conditions including high blood pressure, heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, and depression. As Dr. Wendelschafer notes, so many diseases and conditions are caused by not being able to breathe properly at night.
Getting treatment for sleep apnea isn�t just about better sleep�it�s about protecting your overall health and quality of life.


What to Expect
Your treatment begins with a consultation and evaluation to determine if a custom oral appliance is right for you. We take precise impressions to create an appliance that fits comfortably and works effectively.
The oral appliance is worn only during sleep and is easy to care for. Regular follow-up visits ensure the appliance continues to fit well and provide optimal results.
Signs You May Have Sleep Apnea
Common signs of sleep apnea include loud snoring, waking up gasping or choking, excessive daytime fatigue, morning headaches, and difficulty concentrating. If your partner has noticed you stop breathing during sleep, it�s important to seek treatment.
