Engineered to help you sleep comfortably, CPAP treatment uses air pressure to stop common breathing issues during sleep including snoring, gasping and choking. CPAP technology has evolved with quieter devices and great fitting masks
Generally, oral devices can work best for patients with mild to moderate OSA. An oral device is fitted by a dentist and worn much like a retainer or sport mouthguard.
The most common surgery to treat OSA, UPPP, has a short-term success rate of about 50% in unselected cases. Removing the tonsils and/or adenoids may be effective for some patients.
CPAP device
A CPAP device provides gentle and continuous air pressure through the nasal passage during the night. This continuous pressure helps to ensure that your airway remains open so that you can breathe properly and get a good night's sleep.
