What Is OSA?

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder where the upper airway becomes partially or completely blocked during sleep, leading to recurring interruptions in breathing.

This occurs when throat muscles and soft tissues relax excessively, causing the airway to collapse or narrow. When this happens, patients might have short moments when they don't breathe, which can lower oxygen levels and wake them up briefly.

This disrupted sleep can lead to daytime fatigue and can also cause health issues like high blood pressure and heart problems. The good news is that oral appliance therapy can help patients sleep better and improve their overall health.

What Are My Oral Appliance Therapy Options?

Many dental sleep appliances are available, but it's crucial that they are FDA approved for safety and effectiveness.

The Sleep Well Denver Process

From Step 1 to Step 3, we can get you
into treatment in just a month

Consultation

Step 1

Your path to better sleep begins with a thorough consultation, which can be done virtually or in our office. During this consultation, Dr. Deol will discuss different appliance options and review your previous sleep study results.

Exam and Digital Impression

Step 2

Next, you'll visit our office in-person for a comprehensive exam. Dr. Deol will perform a dental exam and assess your temporomandibular joint health.

After the exam, she'll take a digital impression and send the required information to the lab before you even leave the office. The lab will use this data to create your personalized oral appliance.

Delivery and Results

Step 3

Then, you'll visit our office to receive your custom-fitted oral appliance. We'll make any adjustments needed to make sure it's comfortable and fits you perfectly. Dr. Deol will also walk you through how to adjust the treatment appliance over the next month. This phase is exciting because you'll likely notice a decrease in snoring within the first few nights. You might even start feeling better as early as the first night.

Follow-Up

Step 4

Around a month after receiving the device, Dr. Deol will arrange an in-person or virtual appointment with you. During this visit, she will ensure that your primary symptoms are improving, assess the effectiveness of the treatment, and may consider conducting a repeat sleep study if necessary.
