Sleep Apnea & Snoring Appliances in Regina
Custom Dental Devices for Snoring and Mild Sleep Apnea
If you or your partner is losing sleep due to loud snoring or pauses in breathing at night, you may have sleep apnea. A custom oral appliance may offer real relief, without the need for machines or masks.
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) occurs when the airway becomes partially or fully blocked during sleep. This can lead to repeated waking, loud snoring, fatigue, and long-term health issues.
A dental appliance gently repositions the lower jaw or tongue to keep the airway open. The appliance can improve airflow, reduce snoring, and support better sleep quality.
Who Can Benefit from an Oral Appliance?
Patients with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea
People who snore but don’t have diagnosed apnea
Individuals who can’t tolerate a CPAP machine
Those looking for a portable solution while traveling
We work in coordination with sleep physicians to ensure the appliance is appropriate for your needs and part of a medically sound treatment plan.
What To Expect
After a referral or diagnosis from your physician, we’ll take impressions or scans of your bite to create a custom-fitted appliance. It is designed to be worn during sleep and is easy to clean and maintain.
Once fitted, we will make adjustments as needed to ensure that it is comfortable, effective, and easy to wear nightly.
Signs You May Have Sleep Apnea
Loud, chronic snoring
Gasping or choking sounds during sleep
Daytime drowsiness or difficulty concentrating
Morning headaches or dry mouth
Partner reports of interrupted breathing
If you have not been diagnosed yet but suspect a problem, we can help guide you toward the right medical support.
A CPAP Alternative That Fits Your Life
Oral appliances are quiet, discreet, and easy to travel with. They are a good choice for patients seeking a less intrusive way to manage symptoms and improve sleep for mild to moderate sleep apnea.
