Snoring can affect both your quality of sleep and the well-being of those around you. In some cases, it may also be associated with underlying airway concerns that deserve attention. At Lawen Dentistry, Spring Garden, we provide oral appliance therapy for patients who experience snoring and certain sleep-related breathing conditions, helping them achieve a more restful night’s sleep.
Your care begins with a consultation at Lawen Dentistry, Spring Garden. Dr. Daniel Lawen will discuss your symptoms, review your medical and dental history, and assess whether a custom oral appliance may benefit you.
If oral appliance therapy is recommended, digital scans or impressions of your teeth are used to create a custom-fitted device. The appliance is designed to be worn while you sleep and helps maintain an open airway.
Once your appliance is ready, adjustments can be made to improve comfort and ensure a proper fit. Follow-up appointments allow our team to monitor your progress and make any necessary modifications over time.
For patients with diagnosed sleep apnea, treatment may be coordinated with your physician or sleep specialist as part of your overall care.
