Experience Life Without Sleep Apnea
At The Snooze Doc, we believe that everyone deserves a good night’s sleep. Our expert team is dedicated to diagnosing and treating sleep apnea, ensuring that each patient can enjoy uninterrupted, quality sleep. We offer various treatments tailored to meet the needs of those suffering from this common but serious condition.
Oral Appliance Therapy: A Comfort-First Approach
For many of our patients, the key to a better night’s sleep is Oral Appliance Therapy. This treatment involves using a custom-fitted device, similar to a sports mouthguard, designed to keep your airway open while asleep by gently moving your jaw forward. It’s an effective solution for those with mild to moderate sleep apnea and is preferred by patients who struggle with the bulk and noise of CPAP machines.
Benefits of Oral Appliance Therapy include:

Our Treatment Process: From Consultation to Continuous Care
We offer a streamlined, patient-friendly process for diagnosing sleep apnea that begins with an initial consultation—available both in-clinic or online—and may involve a home sleep test (HST), depending on your symptoms and our clinical assessment.
Start with a Home Sleep Test (HST)
Our home sleep test provides a convenient way for you to measure your sleep patterns in the comfort of your own home, eliminating the need for uncomfortable in-lab sleep studies. The HST is reliable and monitors essential aspects such as your breathing patterns, oxygen levels and heart rate.
Personalized Treatment Process
After completing your home sleep test, a sleep physician will review your results. You’ll engage in a comprehensive discussion about your sleep patterns and receive personalized treatment recommendations. While in some cases, a CPAP machine may be prescribed if absolutely necessary, our primary focus is on less invasive solutions:
Oral Appliance Therapy (OAT):
Lifestyle Adjustments:
Complex Care Options:
With your personalized treatment plan, primarily centered around the use of an oral appliance, we’re dedicated to helping you and your family achieve long-term, restorative sleep. We’ll support you every step of the way to ensure your sleep health is actively maintained.
Beyond Treatment: Comprehensive Support and Education
Understanding your condition is the first step to better health. We offer educational resources about sleep apnea and its effects on overall health, empowering you to make informed decisions about your treatment.
