Sleep apnea & snoring
Custom oral appliance therapy — a comfortable, CPAP-free way to treat snoring and mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea.
A small, custom oral appliance can quiet your snoring and treat sleep apnea — helping you and your partner finally sleep well.
A comfortable alternative to CPAP
If you snore loudly, wake up tired, or have been diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), dentistry may offer a solution you'll actually use. Dr. Sheehan provides custom oral appliance therapy — a small, comfortable, mouthguard-like device that gently keeps your airway open while you sleep.
Many patients find an oral appliance far more convenient than a CPAP machine: it's quiet, portable, and easy to wear, with nothing to plug in. For mild to moderate OSA, it can be a genuine game-changer for your sleep and your health.
Why treating sleep apnea matters
- Better, more restful sleep and daytime energy
- Reduced snoring — your partner will thank you
- Lower long-term risk linked to untreated sleep apnea
- A simple, comfortable, travel-friendly device
Getting started
We'll review your symptoms and any sleep study results, then create a custom-fit oral appliance designed for your mouth. Most patients adjust quickly and notice better sleep before long.
