This is a case of the cure being worse than the problem...
CPAP or continuous airway pressure masks do provide good relief for people suffering from sleep apnea. But many people find it extremely uncomfortable to wear in bed, and the mask and hose look and feel clumsy.
Other side effects of CPAP
Some people development congestion, runny nose, dry mouth and irritated eyes and nose. All this discomfort causes some patients to give up and go back to dealing with their sleep apnea on their own.
A custom-fit, easy to use alternative
Dr. Westman, a Racine dentist, offers an alternative to CPAP. He knows your health is important and that sleep apnea and snoring can seriously affect it.
To cure snoring and provide a solution for sleep apnea, Dr. Westman uses a custom designed oral appliance, individually fit to each of his patients.
The SomnoDent® Mas fits over the upper and lower teeth, similar to a sports mouthguard. The difference between the SomnoDent® Mas and a sports mouthguard is that is a precision-made and clinically-tested appliance.
Dr. Westman finds the SomnoDent® Mas highly effective for stopping snoring and treating patients with mild to moderate sleep apnea.
