How do I treat sleep apnea without CPAP mask?
Yes, I would like to know more about the oral appliance. How does it work and is it effective?
The oral appliance works by holding your jaw in a position that keeps your airway open while you sleep. It is similar to a mouthguard and is custom-fitted by a dentist. Studies have shown that oral appliances can be an effective treatment for sleep apnea, especially for those with mild to moderate cases. However, it may not be suitable for everyone. You should consult with a sleep specialist to determine if this type of treatment is right for you. Do you have any other questions regarding sleep apnea treatment?
