Managing Sleep Apnea and Snoring

At Preston Sherry Dental Associates in Dallas, TX we offer more than just dental care. We provide preventive oral health services that improve your quality of life. One of those is helping our patients manage problems like snoring and sleep apnea.

What Does Sleep Apnea Have to Do With My Smile?

Did you know that some types of snoring are caused by obstruction of the airway because of your oral anatomy? Our dentists provide FDA approved oral appliances that can help to open the airway as you sleep – eliminating bothersome snoring and symptoms of sleep apnea as quickly as the first night.

If you are CPAP intolerant or looking for a less-invasive option to manage your sleep apnea, then it’s time to contact Preston Sherry Dental Associates in Dallas, TX. We can work with you directly or in conjunction with your sleep physician to determine if an oral appliance is right for your sleep needs.

How it Works

We create customized appliances that fit over your teeth and adjust the position of your jaw when you go to sleep. Guiding the jaw forward, the appliance keeps your soft tissues at the back of your throat from collapsing against one another. This improves your airflow, prevents blockage, eliminates snoring and helps manage symptoms of sleep apnea. Some of our patients give up their CPAP altogether.

Find out if our Dallas dentists can help you sleep better by calling Preston Sherry Dental Associates today to schedule a sleep apnea consultation. New patients are always welcome. We work with many insurance plans and also provide convenient financing options.
