Chicago Insomnia Patients With Sleep Apnea Get Relief With Custom Oral Appliance Therapy

by Kurt Saniel

Many people suffer with an inability to fall asleep or stay asleep throughout the night causing them to feel fatigued and unable to focus during the day. In some, their insomnia is caused by sleep apnea, which is a condition that causes them to stop breathing at various times during the night. Some Chicago insomnia sufferers are able to get relief with custom oral appliance therapy.

Plastic oral appliances resemble a mouth guard or retainer used to straighten teeth. Users place them in the mouth before going to bed and wear them through the night. The device is designed to improve airflow to the lungs.

These appliances work by repositioning the soft tissues in the back of the throat, the tongue, and the lower jaw. At the same time, they hold the tongue and jaw in a fixed position. This allows air to flow and eliminates any airway obstructions.

Specially trained dental professionals must evaluate a patient's needs to select the right oral appliance. Patients receive a device made especially for them. For some, this process may require several weeks to complete.

Patients who opt for this therapy receive ongoing care after they begin using these devices. This includes follow up appointments, both short-term and long-term, to assess the effectiveness of the therapy. During follow-up visits, the medical health professional will evaluate the appliance's condition and make sure the patient is comfortable when using it.

Most people will adapt to the feeling of wearing the appliance within just a couple weeks. They are small enough to travel with conveniently, unlike a bulky CPAP machine, which some people use to relieve sleep apnea. The devices are non-invasive and if the results are unsatisfactory, any patient can discontinue use with no worries about negative consequences. Some patients may require additional therapies in addition to wearing the appliance.
