Sleep Apnoea

About Snoring and Sleep Apnea devices...

Snoring and Sleep Apnea can sometimes be alleviated by the use of an oral device. Whether the device is useful depends very much on what type of obstruction (which causes the apnea or the snoring) the individual suffers from.

Sleep Studies (at a sleep centre eg: Wesley Sleep Centre) and airways studies (radiographic) may be useful in ascertaining whether one of these devices may be useful in treating these complaints.

It is important to correctly diagnose whether an oral device will provide a solution.

Obviously it is a lot easier to wear an oral device and far less costly than use a C-PAP machine .

Indeed, in many cases of sleep apnea a positive air-pressure or C-PAP machine unfortunately may be the correct treatment so therefore a correct diagnosis is important in ascertaining the effectiveness of any oral devices or in fact any solution.

These oral devices generally work by advancing and hold the mandible open and forward 60-70% of the jaws range which helps maintain an open airway. Being not the most natural position some individuals can have a little trouble adapting the sleeping with the device.

These devices can be less effective over time as the tissue and individual adapts.

There are literally 50 different FDA (USA)approved devices (see some on this link)[one for every day of the month]

The [currently] most fashionable types...

The SOMNOMED a sturdy and adjustable device but reasonable bulky. More expensive, patented but prefered by many sleep clinics.

The MDSA an Australian device for anti snoring and mild sleep apnea

The SILENT NIGHT - primarily an anti-snoring device - less expensive can be slightly less robust.

Whilst our technology reduces treatment times we play your movie and entertainment selections over the chairs in our state of the art operatories. We have access and accessibility chairs and memory foam neck comfort supports. We use numbing gels and wait for them to work.

Sense Of Humor

Our in chair movie selections really say it all really, but it is also important to point out that humour is the first pillar of understanding and empathy.
If a wise man once said the "a short memory is the cornerstone of good relationships" then surely humour and grace are that of understanding and empathy.
