Dental appliance to treat sleep apnea

05/12/2008 10:22PM

Question:

Through a sleep study, my doctor has confirmed I have mild sleep apnea. Sinus problems make the CPAP unusable for me. I`d like to explore a dental appliance but I don`t know how to find a reputable and experienced dentist in Columbus for this. Any suggestions?

Answer:

You might try to locate a dentist who provides "Silent Night" appliances for snoring. This appliance might or might not help you.
