What to Expect at Your First Visit

If you have sleep apnea symptoms, we will order an at-home sleep test so we can confirm your diagnosis. Dr. Holland will then discuss your treatment options. This takes just a few weeks. In no time, you’ll be sleeping like a baby and getting the rest you need.

An Alternative to CPAPs

One of the ways we treat sleep apnea is with an oral appliance. It gently opens up your airways so you don’t wake up gasping for breath. This CPAP alternative is easier to take with you when you travel and it’s more comfortable to wear while you sleep.

Commitment to Patients

Dr. Holland is always pursuing ongoing education opportunities to expand his knowledge of sleep apnea. He uses a patient-first approach and only recommends an oral appliance if it’s best suited for your sleep needs.

We Accept Medicare

We are proud to accept Medicare at Sleep Better Oregon. If you have questions about your insurance coverage, give us a call. We’ll help you maximize your insurance benefits and understand your options.

Benefits of an Oral Appliance

An oral appliance can eliminate mild to moderate sleep apnea symptoms. Our custom-made appliances gently open up your airways while you sleep. So you no longer snore or wake up gasping for air. Your sleep quality will improve, and your bed partner will sleep better too.

A custom-made oral appliance will:

• Last longer and feel more comfortable than anything you’d buy in the store
• Eliminate unwanted side effects that can occur with a CPAP
• Be easier to take with you while you travel
• Stop damage caused by grinding or clenching your teeth while you sleep

While we believe CPAP machines are still the gold standard in sleep apnea treatment, many patients find them cumbersome and awkward. An oral appliance is a simple and minimally invasive treatment option that will help you sleep through the night. Those with severe obstructive sleep apnea may sleep better by using an appliance and a CPAP together.

Recognize the Symptoms of Sleep Apnea

You may not always recognize the signs of sleep apnea until a bed partner reports them to you. Do you or a loved one experience any of the following symptoms:

Snoring
Daytime sleepiness
Fatigue
Headaches
Dry mouth
Waking up choking or gasping for air

If any of these symptoms look familiar, contact us at (541) 515-7774 to schedule an appointment.

Are You at Risk for Sleep Apnea? Risk Factors Include:

60-75% of sleep apnea sufferers are male. However, women may be at greater risk of living with undiagnosed sleep apnea.
Obesity can increase your risk of obstructive sleep apnea but 25% of patients diagnosed with sleep apnea are NOT obese.
Lifestyle factors, including smoking, drinking, and the use of prescription sedatives also increase your risk.
Recent research indicates that genetics can influence your risk of sleep apnea, too.
If left untreated, sleep apnea can result in a growing number of health problems including stroke, heart failure, and diabetes.

Commonly Asked Questions About Sleep Apnea Treatment

If you have questions about our oral devices for sleep apnea treatment, we’ve answered some of them below. If you have any concerns we have not addressed, give us a call at (541) 515-7774.

Do you accept Medicare?

Yes, we do accept Medicare. We encourage you to visit Medicare.gov/coverage and/or check your Medicare and You handbook for specific questions regarding coverage. We'll be happy to help you as much as possible. Medical insurance can be a challenge, and our expert team can provide you with the assistance you need to understand your coverage.

Will I experience relief with an oral appliance?

Yes! For patients with mild to moderate sleep apnea symptoms, an oral appliance is a wonderful alternative to a CPAP. It gently opens up your airways so the soft tissues in your mouth do not block your throat. Whether or not you have sleep apnea, an appliance will stop your snoring. It may not be the most suitable treatment for severe sleep apnea.

I grind my teeth. Is an oral appliance right for me?

Yes! Since the oral appliance covers both your bottom and top teeth, it acts as a barrier and protects you from teeth grinding damage. Because the oral device is so durable, it can also comfortably withstand clenching teeth.

Will my physician know what’s going on?

We always work one-on-one with your physician while treating your sleep apnea. We’ll update them about your treatment and keep them in the loop every step of the way. Our primary goal is for your overall health to improve and for you to sleep through the night comfortably.
