Sleep Apnea TreatmentA mandibular advancement device(MAD) is an option to treat obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). It works by moving the jaw and tongue forward to increase oxygen consumption and prevent snoring. A CPAP still continues to be the standard of care for the treatment of OSA. What is the procedure for a MAD?After determining you are a candidate for a MAD, we use our intraoral scanner to send your models digitally to a laboratory for the custom device to be fabricated. There are a number of follow up appointments to ensure that the device is working for you. A new sleep study will be required once the device is fitted. To see if you are a candidate for a MAD, please discuss with Dr. Kloenne. |
