Dental Treatment for Sleep Apnea

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) occurs when the throat muscles relax during sleep, causing the airway to collapse and breathing to repeatedly stop. While CPAP therapy is the gold standard for moderate-severe OSA, many patients with mild-to-moderate OSA can be effectively treated with a custom oral appliance — a device worn like a mouth guard during sleep that repositions the lower jaw forward to keep the airway open.

Oral appliance therapy (OAT) is endorsed by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine as an effective alternative to CPAP for appropriate candidates — particularly those who cannot tolerate or consistently use CPAP. Our English-speaking dental team can assess your suitability and fabricate a custom appliance in Songdo.

FAQ

Sleep Apnea Treatment Questions

Common questions from expats in Songdo about dental oral appliance therapy for sleep apnea.

Is a dental appliance as effective as CPAP?
For mild to moderate OSA, oral appliance therapy achieves comparable outcomes to CPAP in many patients — particularly because compliance is significantly higher (OAT is more comfortable and less intrusive). For severe OSA, CPAP remains more effective. We work alongside your sleep physician to determine the best approach for your severity level.
Do I need a sleep study before getting an appliance?
Yes — a sleep study (polysomnography or home sleep test) diagnosis is required before fabricating an oral appliance. We can coordinate with your physician or sleep specialist, or provide referrals to appropriate facilities in Incheon and Seoul.
What are the side effects of oral appliance therapy?
Common initial side effects include temporary jaw soreness, excessive salivation, and mild tooth discomfort. These typically resolve as you adjust to wearing the appliance. Long-term bite changes are possible with extended use — we monitor for these at regular follow-up appointments.
