A Sleep Apnea Dental Device that Offers an Alternative to CPAP
The SomnoDent® MAS is a sleep apnea dental appliance that a series of rigorous clinical trials have proven to be a comfortable and safe alternative CPAP treatment. Several key design features, advantages, and benefits allow this sleep apnea dental appliance to function much more effectively than typical, traditional mouth guards.
One key feature of SomnoDent® MAS is its streamlined design that makes it one of the few devices of its kind that can be worn by people with a strong gag reflex. It fits both the upper and lower arches of the jaw equally, and it has been engineered to make both anterior and posterior contact with key areas in the mouth. Occlusion is therefore more stable, and tooth movement is minimized.
The SomnoDent® MAS can minimize the tempero-mandibular joint discomfort that is often caused by other night guards. It has also consistently proven itself to be a strong preventative of Bruxism.
This sleep apnea dental device is actually composed of two separate pieces so that it will be easier for people to open and close their mouths. Patients are able to yawn, speak understandably, and drink while wearing their nightguard.
The SomnoDent® MAS sleep apnea dental device can also be worn without causing excessive salivation. Other night guards often trigger this because of a piece that holds them to the front teeth. However, the MAS fits so seamlessly into the upper and lower arches that it requires no secondary attachment mechanism, so the side effects caused by other dental devices which include dry mouth, dribbling, and undo salivation are absent with the SomnoDent.
Another benefit that this extraordinary, comfortable fit offers the patient is an exceptionally high level of retention. Seldom, if ever, does a SomnoDent® MAS ever fall out of the mouth of a patient. It can, however, be conveniently removed and titrated, cleaned, and disinfected just like any other sleep apnea dental device. Its acrylic construction makes it difficult to damage, and even if it is damaged, repairs and adjustments are easy to make.
When the dentist issues your SomnoDent sleep apnea dental device, he or she adjusts it to fit the optimal protrusion position of your mouth. This ensures the most effective and comfortable treatment possible. Adjusting the device is also easy, because it is made to fit each the optimal protrusion position of each and every patient in order to find which setting provides the most effective and comfortable treatment. We at the Cosmetic Dentistry Center of Houston have made it a point to make the SomnoDent® MAS a key option to patients who suffer from sleep apnea and who feel that CPAP treatment simply is not an option for them.
