What is Obstructive Sleep Apnea?
Mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a serious medical condition that affects patients of all ages, body types, and backgrounds. It can result in such health concerns as high blood pressure, migraines, gastrointestinal disorders, autoimmune diseases, and depression, to name a few.
If you have been diagnosed with sleep apnea, you need to see a qualified medical doctor and/or a dentist with the appropriate training.
If you have NOT yet been diagnosed with OSA, complete our self-assessment survey to be connected with a airway-trained provider in your area.

After completing the survey, you will be contacted to meet with an airway-trained dentist who will guide you through four critical steps:
Step 1
Sleep Assessment
The purpose of a sleep assessment is to evaluate your sleep quality and determine the severity of your sleep apnea, if present. Your airway dentist or medical provider will provide a home sleep test.
Step 2
Medical Diagnosis
After an initial assessment, a qualified medical doctor will provide a diagnosis and recommend the best treatment options for your particular case.
Step 3
Comprehensive Exam and Treatment Plan
Based on your specific needs, your airway-trained dentist will conduct a comprehensive evaluation, taking all relevant clinical records, in order to formulate a customized treatment plan. This treatment plan will likely include a number of integrative therapies that have been proven to ensure the best treatment outcomes.
Step 4
Complete Treatment
Your results from Airway Dentistry will largely depend upon your commitment to follow the directions and protocols prescribed by your airway doctors and other providers. By remaining diligent in completing your treatment, you will have the best likelihood of achieving your breathing and sleep goals.
