Sleep Apnoea Treatment

Sleep Apnoea Treatment at East Adelaide Dental Studio

Sleep apnoea doesn’t just involve exhausted mornings for you and your partner due to snoring. It’s a serious medical issue that requires treatment options to ensure your safety and comfort. If you’ve been diagnosed with sleep apnoea by your GP but don’t need surgery and don’t want to wear a CPAP machine at night, East Adelaide Dental Studio offers you another option: oral mandibular advancement devices.

We utilise the Moses® — an effective, comfortable way to treat obstructive sleep apnoea. This innovative device moves your tongue forward to enlarge your airway. You can still talk, drink, close your mouth and open wide while wearing your appliance.

Why Moses®?

The company has a stringent quality control standard that ensures that it’s specifically designed just for you. You can still have the full function of your mouth while wearing it, and adjustments are rarely necessary. It boasts:

  • A two-part, independent design form
  • Total freedom of movement for you
  • The ability to reduce bruxism (teeth grinding and clenching)
  • No titration needed
  • Fully adjustable

What Happens If I Don’t Seek Out a Solution to My Sleep Apnoea?

Once you’ve been diagnosed with sleep apnoea by your GP, they are obligated to send your details to the motor registry if you don’t seek help. You may end up losing your license.

COVERAGE OPTIONS

We believe in excellent dental care that’s accessible to all. There are many different payment options at our practice. All health funds are accepted, and we’re providers for Medibank Members’ Choice, Bupa and HCF. If you don’t have dental coverage, there are still solutions available through DentiCare, AfterPay or ZipPay payment plans.
