Some patients who have been diagnosed with mild to moderate sleep apnea and have been unable to adjust to a CPAP machine may be a candidate for a dental appliance called a mandibular reposition device. This appliance brings the lower jaw forward to open the airway during sleep.
Dr. Laura Adair will work with your healthcare professional to determine if you are a candidate for this type of sleep apnea therapy. For more information on the Thornton Adjustable Positioner, please go to www.tapintosleep.com.
