Why Treat Sleep Apnea? It's More Than Snoring!
A good night’s sleep is essential for good health, but many people don’t get the rest they need due to sleep-related breathing disorders (SRBD), like sleep apnea. It is more than snoring, though snoring is no laughing matter either. Sleep apnea can lead to problems not only in health but also in relationships! But relief is at hand.

At My Dental Touch Studio, we offer effective treatments for sleep apnea and snoring that don’t require CPAP machines. These effective, efficient treatments (oral appliances and laser therapy) are backed by evidence and have relieved many patients.

How We Can Treat Sleep Apnea
Oral Appliances
Oral appliances are custom-fitted devices worn during sleep to treat snoring and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). They work by repositioning the lower jaw and tongue to keep the airway open, preventing the collapse of soft tissues that cause breathing interruptions.
Comfortable and easy to wear, oral appliances offer a non-invasive, convenient alternative to CPAP machines, allowing you to enjoy a restful night’s sleep and wake up refreshed.
Laser Dentistry
Laser dentistry uses advanced laser technology to treat various dental conditions with precision and minimal discomfort. For sleep apnea, laser treatments such as Fotona’s NightLase® therapy gently tighten the tissues in the throat, reducing snoring and improving airflow.
This non-invasive, pain-free approach helps you breathe easier and sleep better without the need for surgery or lengthy recovery times, ensuring you feel rejuvenated and ready to tackle the day.
