What Is Sleep Apnea? Symptoms & Risks Explained
Sleep apnea occurs when the airway becomes partially or completely blocked during sleep, leading to pauses in breathing. Common signs include:
- Loud snoring
- Waking up gasping for air
- Morning headaches
- Daytime fatigue and difficulty concentrating
If left untreated, sleep apnea can increase the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, and stroke.
How a Sleep Apnea Mouth Guard Works
A custom sleep apnea mouth guard (also called an oral appliance) repositions the lower jaw slightly forward to prevent airway collapse. This:
- Reduces snoring by improving airflow
- Improves oxygen levels for better sleep quality
- Offers a non-invasive alternative to CPAP therapy
Each appliance is made just for your mouth to fit comfortably and work perfectly. Unlike store-bought options, a custom mouth guard helps keep your jaw in the right position for lasting relief.
Benefits of Using a Sleep Apnea Mouth Guard
Choosing a custom sleep apnea mouth guard from Oasis Smile Dental offers several benefits:
- Better Sleep Quality—Reduces breathing interruptions and promotes deeper sleep
- Quiet Nights—Minimizes snoring for you and your partner
- Comfortable & Portable—Easy to wear and travel-friendly
- No Machines or Masks—A simple, effective alternative to CPAP therapy
- Custom Fit—Designed specifically for your bite and jaw structure
If CPAP therapy feels uncomfortable or difficult to use, an oral appliance may be the right solution.
