SLEEP APNEA TREATMENT
Experience a life free from sleep apnea
At ZapZzz, we believe in the importance of a good night’s sleep for our patients. Our dedicated team of experts specializes in diagnosing and treating sleep apnea, ensuring that each patient can enjoy uninterrupted, high-quality sleep. We provide a range of personalized treatments designed to meet the needs of individuals suffering from this common yet serious condition.Â
Prioritize comfort with Oral Appliance Therapy
For many of our patients, Oral Appliance Therapy offers an effortless pathway to a better night’s sleep. This treatment involves using a custom-fitted device, akin to a sports mouthguard, that gently advances your jaw while you sleep to keep your airway open. Using one of our devices can be highly effective for treating individuals with mild to moderate sleep apnea since CPAP machines can be bulky, noisy, and uncomfortable.
Benefits of Oral Appliance Therapy
Comfort
Custom-made to fit your mouth precisely and ensures comfort surpassing that of CPAP machines.
Convenience
Ideal for frequent travelers as it is easy to use and maintain.Â
Quiet Operation
Operates silently and ensures a disturbance-free night.

Our treatment process: from consultation to ongoing care
At ZapZzz, we provide an efficient and patient-centered approach to screening sleep apnea. You start with an initial consultation available either in-clinic or online, and depending on your symptoms, this may include a home sleep test (HST) for convenience and accuracy. After providing you with the proper resources to remedy your issue, we will continue to support and guide you towards a heathier lifestyle. Â
BEGIN WITH A HOME SLEEP TEST OR LAB SLEEP STUDY
ZapZzz Home Sleep Test or in Lab Sleep Studies offers a convenient method to assess your sleep patterns.
Personalized treatment approach
Following your completion of the home sleep test, your results will be reviewed by a sleep physician. You will engage in a thorough discussion about your sleep patterns and receive personalized treatment recommendations. While in some instances, a CPAP machine may be prescribed, if necessary, our primary focus remains on less invasive solutions:Â
Oral Appliance Therapy (OAT)

Lifestyle Adjustments
We recommend manageable changes such as weight management, reducing alcohol consumption, and optimizing sleep positions to enhance your sleep quality.
Advanced Treatment Options
For more complex cases, we may suggest additional therapies or consultations with other board-certified sleep experts
Beyond treatment, comprehensive support and education By working to create your customized treatment plan, we are committed to assisting you and your family in achieving long-term, rejuvenating sleep. We will be there every step of the journey to ensure your ongoing sleep health is well-supported.
