At Advanced Dental Sleep Treatment Center, we understand how complicated and frustrating it can feel to get diagnosed with sleep apnea and finally find a comfortable and effective treatment that works for you. We want to help patients get the treatment they need to improve their health without jumping through hoops or visiting multiple doctors. Our one-stop-shop for sleep helps patients seamlessly navigate through every aspect of their sleep treatment. From start to finish, we strive to see that every single patient who walks through our door is successfully treated.
New Patient Appointment
Before we can prescribe a sleep apnea treatment, we first meet with patients for a new patient appointment. During this time, we will review any past sleep test results in addition to examining the airways. This test is read and interpreted by a Board Certified Sleep Physician. Patients don’t have to leave home to take their test or search for a physician for a diagnosis. We can most often take care of everything from our office.
Sleep Apnea Treatment
After we receive your test results and recommendations from a Board Certified Sleep Physician, we can then discuss our different treatment options. We offer both CPAP and oral appliances. We have a Registered Respiratory Therapist in our office so we can provide CPAP to patients who need immediate treatment or whose insurance requires the use of CPAP. We can also use combination therapy that involves both CPAP and oral appliances. Throughout your CPAP treatment, we will follow up with you to ensure you’re happy with your treatment so we can make adjustments if needed.

Dr. Melissa Sheets
Dr. Sheets is a fifth-generation Nebraskan who was born and raised in Lincoln. She is a graduate of St. Olaf College and holds a Doctor of Dental Surgery from the University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Dentistry. Upon graduation she completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry Residency at David Grant U.S. Air Force Medical Center in Fairfield, CA. Dr. Sheets joined Advanced Dental Sleep Treatment Center in 2021, after completing 12 years of active duty service as a commissioned officer and General Dentist in the United States Air Force. Dr. Sheets has completed over one hundred hours of continuing education in dental sleep medicine and is a Diplomate of the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine.
Dr. Roger Roubal
Dr. Roubal earned both his undergraduate degree and his Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) from Creighton University. Following graduation in 1974, he and his wife returned to the area where they grew up, and became the practitioner of the local dental office in Dodge, NE. From the time of being a young boy, Dr. Roubal was very eager to learn, and that never changed. Early in his career, he became aware of and intrigued by the notion of dentistry’s impact on the whole body. In 1988, he took his first sleep dentistry course, and began treating sleep apnea soon thereafter. In 2001, Dr. Roubal and his family moved to Omaha and in the coming years, he earned a Diplomate in both TMJ Disorders and Sleep Dentistry. In 2012, he limited his practice to snoring and sleep apnea treatment, establishing Advanced Dental Sleep Treatment Center. He became a Medical and DME provider so that his patients could utilize their medical insurance benefits at his practice and in 2020 expanded its offerings to include CPAP treatment.
Dr. Tracy Brigden
Dr. Brigden was born in Blackpool, England and moved to the United States with his parents in 1970. Beginning his career as a radiologic technologist specializing in CAT scans and MRIs, Dr. Brigden considered going to medical school, but ultimately decided dentistry was where he wanted to make his impact. Dr. Brigden established a successful practice at Legacy Dental, and in 2015 decided to focus more on sleep treatment and thus joined Advanced Dental Sleep Treatment Center. Dr. Brigden shadowed Dr. Roubal for a year before seeing his own patients and learned what it takes clinically to far exceed national standards for successful sleep apnea and snoring treatment. Along with hands on experience with Dr. Roubal, Dr. Brigden has taken hundreds of hours of continuing education courses specific to Dental Sleep treatment, and in 2020, became a Diplomate of the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine, which demonstrates the highest level of dedication and knowledge in dental sleep health.
