Common questions
Understand the sleep & airway conversation.
Useful education should answer the real questions patients bring to a consultation while remaining honest about what requires clinical evaluation.
Can a dentist diagnose sleep apnea?
Diagnosis requires appropriate medical evaluation and testing. Dentists can help screen, coordinate, and provide selected oral appliance therapy within proper care.
Is an oral appliance right for everyone?
No. Appropriateness depends on diagnosis, severity, anatomy, dental condition, and medical recommendation.
Will an appliance stop snoring?
Outcomes vary, and snoring may signal a broader sleep-related breathing issue that deserves professional evaluation.
