Sleep Apnea Treatment in Weston, FL

Sleep apnea is a serious condition in which breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep. Left untreated, it can contribute to high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, and chronic fatigue. At Precision Dental of Weston, we offer a comfortable, non-invasive dental solution that helps many patients breathe easier and sleep better.

Oral Appliance Therapy

 

For mild to moderate sleep apnea, a custom-fitted oral appliance can be an effective alternative to a CPAP machine. This device gently repositions the lower jaw and tongue during sleep, keeping the airway open and eliminating the breathing interruptions that characterize sleep apnea.

Clenching and grinding frequently accompany sleep apnea and must be part of any complete treatment plan. Some patients require both a sleep apnea appliance and a separate occlusal bite guard to fully address all aspects of the condition — leaving either one untreated can lead to incomplete relief and long-term dental damage. Beyond oral health, untreated sleep apnea has been linked to serious systemic conditions including high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes — making comprehensive treatment not just important, but essential.
