Even though CPAP machines are proven to be highly effective at treating sleep apnea, nearly half of all patients will stop using them altogether after one year. This is because the machine is often so noisy and uncomfortable that they still find it hard to sleep – which obviously defeats the purpose of the treatment! The good news is that patients with mild or moderate obstructive sleep apnea have another option to consider.

Sleep apnea affects breathing during sleep and can lead to serious health complications if left untreated. Ten Mile Dental offers custom oral appliance therapy as a comfortable, non-CPAP alternative for treating mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea, helping Frisco patients sleep better and protect their long-term health.
