Central District Seattle Obstructive Sleep Apnea Expert Offers Sleap Apnea Mouth Guard


Summit Dental Care provides easy-to-use, affordable mouth guards intended to alleviate your sleep apnea symptoms and help you get safer and more restful sleep.


Sleep apnea is generally divided into three types: obstructive, central, and complex. Mouth Guards are primarily used to treat obstructive sleep apnea.


The appliances, which are similar to retainers, keep your upper and lower jaw in forward positions, which in turn, prevents your airway from being obstructed.

Most practitioners recommend mouth guards because they are simpler to use than CPAP machines and other sleep aids, and because they protect your teeth from grinding.


To get an oral appliance, you have to have impressions of your teeth and gums taken.

This is to ensure that your device fits snugly and comfortably and that it doesn't shift while you are asleep.


Typically, the devices are made using biocompatible molded plastics, and they will sometimes have hinges and screws inserted into them so they can be adjusted.
