From Patients

"When I was first diagnosed with sleep apnea, I thought that my only option was CPAP therapy. I was so happy when my doctor told me that I could have a dental appliance instead. And I was even happier when I got my SUAD™ Device! With The SUAD™ Device not only was I able to sleep all night but so was my wife since she no longer had to put up with my once uncontrollable snoring. The SUAD™ Device is comfortable and stands up to its word."

Sleep Apnea

Signs, Causes and Treatment

Sleep Apnea is a sleep disorder characterized by complete or partial cessations of breathing during sleep. The cause is a physical block to airflow despite respiratory effort, and snoring is common.

Sleepiness Test

Epworth Sleepiness Scale

The Sleepiness Test, also know as the Epworth Test, is intended to measure daytime sleepiness by using of a very short questionnaire. It is very helpful in diagnosing sleep disorders. It was first introduced in 1991 by Dr Murray Johns of Epworth Hospital in Melbourne, Australia.

Snoring

Snoring Stresses Relationships

Living with a snorer can strain even the most dedicated relationship leading to dissension and in some case, divorce. If you are kept awake night after night by a bed partner's snoring, you are not getting the sleep you need. Sleep deprivation can lead to irritability, muddled thinking, illness, poor performance at work and drowsy driving.

Oral Appliance Therapy

FDA Approved For Both Snoring and Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Worn much like a sports mouthpiece, Oral Appliances are the popular, consistently used solution by patients for sleep apnea. They are only available by prescription or construction by a licensed dentist or physician.
