Snoring & Sleep Apnea- A number of appliances and treatments exist today to treat snoring and sleep apnea disorders.   The graphic above demonstrates how the airway increases with a forward positioned mandible, thereby decreasing the vibrations of soft tissue which cause snoring and also increasing the pathway for oxygen.  Our office provides dental appliances which can help maintain this optimal position comfortably without surgery!   Sleep apnea is a serious health condition for many people and our office will work with you and your physician to address your concerns.  We have successfully treated a number of patients and work with local sleep disorder clinics to help patients reduce their sleep deprivation and improve their quality of life!  If you feel you could benefit from this treatment, please call Dr. Gagliardi's office for a free consultation or for more information on local area sleep clinics.
