Sleep Apnea and Snore Guards

A common complaint that we hear is loss of sleep due to snoring, (especially by the spouse)! We can create a devise that will reduce the activity of snoring and its occurance. This "snore guard" will open up the airpassage to reduce the vibration of soft tissue in the back of the throat which creates the sounds of snoring. Patients have reported a significant decrease in snoring in over 85% of cases!

Sleep Apnea is the sudden cessation of breathing while sleeping. this can last up to five seconds. Over time, Sleep Apnea can be a serious detriment on your heart and health, and in the most serious of cases can actually lead to death. We can help to reduce the occurance of Sleep Apnea through a device similar to the snore guard.

TMJ Treatment

Tempero-Mandibular Dysfunction or TMJ is a common concern, especially among women 25-50 years of age. This problem occurs when the cartillagenous disc that aids in the opening and closing of your lower jaw becomes inflammed. This inflammation creates pain that can radiate through your ears, the side of your face, and even down your back and legs. By diagnosing the cause of your problem we can create a definitive treatment to allieviate the pain!
