Sleep Apnea Treatment & Oral Appliances in Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia
If you snore heavily, wake up feeling tired, or struggle with restless sleep, you may be experiencing obstructive sleep apnea — a condition that affects more than just your rest. At Dentists on the Square, we offer custom oral appliance therapy to treat mild to moderate sleep apnea comfortably and effectively, without a CPAP machine.
Located in the heart of Philadelphia’s Rittenhouse Square, we help patients breathe better, sleep deeper, and wake up feeling refreshed.
What Is Obstructive Sleep Apnea?
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) occurs when the soft tissues at the back of your throat collapse during sleep, briefly blocking your airway. This interruption can happen dozens or even hundreds of times per night — often without you knowing.
Common signs of sleep apnea include:
- Loud snoring
- Gasping or choking sounds during sleep
- Daytime fatigue
- Morning headaches
- Difficulty concentrating
- Dry mouth or sore throat upon waking
- Mood swings or irritability
Untreated sleep apnea has been linked to serious health issues, including high blood pressure, cardiovascular problems, and increased risk of stroke.
Custom Oral Appliance Therapy
For patients with mild to moderate OSA or those who can’t tolerate a CPAP, we offer a more comfortable, convenient solution: a custom oral sleep appliance.
This small, comfortable device is worn during sleep and works by gently repositioning the jaw to keep your airway open.
Benefits include:
- Improved airflow and reduced snoring
- No masks, hoses, or machines
- Comfortable and travel-friendly
- Quiet and easy to use
- Often covered by medical insurance
At Dentists on the Square, we use evidence-based appliances that are FDA-cleared and custom-fitted to your bite and jaw position.
