Take Control of Your Sleep & Your Health
Sleep apnea is a serious condition that affects millions of people. If left untreated, this sleep disorder can increase your risk for serious health problems such as high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. That’s why it’s crucial to receive a diagnosis for your condition and pursue treatment.
At Levenson Smile, you’ll find that we have a comprehensive approach to sleep apnea treatment:
- We begin with a thorough patient screening and a discussion of your symptoms.
- You will receive a take-home sleep study that will gather detailed information about your sleep patterns and breathing. An at-home test is more convenient and comfortable than one performed in a lab.
- Your sleep study is reviewed by a board-certified doctor who specializes in sleep medicine. They will determine if you suffer from apnea.
- Based on your unique needs and preferences, your dentist will design an oral appliance for you using digital scanning technology. Wearing this appliance will keep your airways open during sleep. You’ll be able to breathe easily throughout the night. You’ll sleep better and feel better too.
Treat Your Apnea With a Custom Sleep Appliance
CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) is a well-known treatment option for sleep apnea. However, not everyone finds it the most comfortable solution. That’s why we’re proud to offer a custom oral appliance as your solution to sleep apnea. You will find it more convenient than wearing a CPAP. You’ll appreciate many benefits:
- Compact and portable design, making it easy to take along when you travel
- Quiet operation, allowing for a more peaceful sleep environment
- Non-invasive and easy to wear, with no masks or hoses
- Discreet and comfortable, allowing for more natural sleep positions
- Easy to care for and maintain, with no complex equipment to clean
You can have sleep apnea without even realizing. You or your bed partner may have symptoms, such as loud snoring and gasping for air during sleep, waking up with a dry mouth or sore throat, morning headaches and difficulty concentrating, irritability and mood changes, and excessive daytime sleepiness and fatigue.
If you recognize any of these signs, don’t wait to make an appointment. Don’t let this disorder affect your rest and your overall health!

Sleep apnea is a condition caused when your airway becomes obstructed while you sleep. This usually occurs when your tongue or other soft tissue in your mouth temporarily relaxes. This causes frequent interruptions in your breathing that make it nearly impossible for you – and often your household – to get a good night’s rest.
Not only will sleep apnea disrupt your sleep to the point that you feel fatigued and are unable to concentrate during the day, but this condition has also been linked to several other serious health problems. Sleep apnea can play a role in high blood pressure, heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, and depression. Treating your sleep apnea now will improve your quality of life and potentially help you live longer.
With sleep apnea, your airway slowly becomes constricted as you fall asleep. To treat it, you need to find a way to keep breathing by keeping your airway open. A CPAP machine can help, but many people have problems using a CPAP consistently. We can design a custom-made oral appliance that shifts your jaw in a way that allows you to breathe freely throughout the night.
