OMAHA SLEEP APNEA & SNORING DENTISTS

Welcome to Advanced Dental Sleep Treatment Center

Are you looking for an alternative to CPAP? At Advanced Dental Sleep Treatment Center, we are experts in treating sleep apnea and snoring with custom oral appliances—an effective, comfortable CPAP alternative. Our dedicated team provides personalized care, advanced technology, and expert treatment to help you achieve deeper sleep and better health.

Initial Consultation

During your first visit, we’ll review your medical history, discuss your symptoms, and assess your airway and jaw position. If you haven’t had a sleep study, we’ll guide you through an at-home test to determine if oral appliance therapy is right for you.

Custom Appliance Design

Once we’ve confirmed your diagnosis, if you’re a good candidate for oral appliance therapy, we’ll take digital impressions of your teeth and jaw to create a custom-fitted oral appliance tailored to your specific needs.

Better Sleep

After you begin using your oral appliance, we’ll schedule follow-up visits to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to ensure you’re sleeping better and that your snoring and sleep apnea are well controlled.

Why Choose Oral Appliance Therapy?

Looking for a CPAP alternative? CPAP is a highly effective treatment, but it can be uncomfortable, difficult to clean, and inconvenient for travel. With oral appliance therapy, you don’t have to wear a CPAP. You can sleep in any position, clean it easily with a toothbrush, travel without hassle, and enjoy quiet, uninterrupted sleep.

Understanding Sleep Apnea

What Is Sleep Apnea and Why Does It Matter?

Sleep apnea is a serious condition in which breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep. It often results from blocked airways due to relaxed throat muscles or excess tissue, disrupting your rest and affecting overall health.

Untreated sleep apnea increases the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, and chronic fatigue. Fortunately, effective, noninvasive treatments—such as oral appliance therapy—can restore healthy sleep and improve well-being.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answer: Snoring occurs when airflow is restricted, causing soft tissues in the throat to vibrate. While snoring alone isn’t always sleep apnea, it can be a warning sign and should be evaluated.

Oral appliances are comfortable, travel-friendly, and easy to maintain. They work by keeping the airway open, making them a great alternative to CPAP for many patients.

Common signs include loud snoring, frequent waking, gasping for air, morning headaches, and excessive daytime fatigue. A home sleep test or in-lab study can provide a definitive diagnosis.
