How can a dentist treat sleep apnea?

One of the most well-known treatments for sleep apnea is CPAP therapy, which uses a machine to keep air moving through your airway while you are sleeping. While this treatment is effective, many people fail it for a variety of reasons. Another effective treatment is an oral appliance that is worn while you sleep. This device is customized to fit your mouth and holds your airway open so that you can continue breathing while you sleep.
