Non-Surgical, Non-CPAP Dental Sleep Apnea Treatment by Afdent Dental

If you or a loved one struggles with sleep apnea, you know how disruptive it can be to your sleep and overall health. At Afdent Dental in Northern Indiana, we’re proud to offer a non-surgical, non-CPAP alternative to treat obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Our custom-fitted dental sleep appliances provide a comfortable, effective solution to help you breathe better, sleep soundly, and wake up refreshed.

Why Choose a Dental Sleep Appliance?

CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) machines are a common treatment for sleep apnea, but they aren’t suitable for everyone. Many individuals find them uncomfortable, noisy, or difficult to use consistently. That’s where dental sleep appliances come in. These small, discreet devices are worn in your mouth while you sleep and work by gently repositioning your jaw to keep your airway open. Here’s why they’re a great option:

  • Comfortable and Easy to Wear: Custom-made for your mouth, our dental appliances are designed for a snug, comfortable fit.
  • Portable: Unlike CPAP machines, sleep appliances are small and travel-friendly.
  • Quiet: There’s no machinery involved, ensuring a peaceful night for you and your partner.
  • Non-Invasive: No surgery or permanent alterations are needed.
  • Clinically Effective: Proven to reduce snoring and alleviate mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea.

The Steps to Better Sleep with Afdent Dental

At Afdent Dental, we’re committed to making your journey to better sleep as smooth as possible. Here’s what to expect:

Step 1: Initial Consultation and Airflow Study

Your journey begins with an in-office consultation with our experienced Sleep Team. During this visit, we’ll discuss your symptoms, medical history, and any previous sleep apnea treatments you’ve tried. We’ll also conduct a quick airflow study to evaluate your breathing and determine if a dental appliance could be a suitable solution for you.

Step 2: At-Home Sleep Study

Next, we provide you with an easy-to-use at-home sleep study kit. This allows us to gather detailed data on your sleep patterns and oxygen levels in the comfort of your own bed. The results will help us confirm your diagnosis and tailor your treatment plan.

Step 3: Custom Fitting for Your Sleep Appliance

Once the sleep study confirms that a dental appliance is the right choice, we’ll take precise impressions of your teeth and jaw. Using this data, we create a custom-fitted device designed specifically for your anatomy. At your fitting appointment, we ensure the appliance is adjusted for maximum comfort and effectiveness.

Step 4: Follow-Up Care

Your care doesn’t end once you receive your device. We schedule regular follow-ups to monitor your progress, make any necessary adjustments, and ensure your sleep appliance continues to work effectively.
