At Stephens Dentistry, we understand that good sleep is vital to your overall health and well-being, and we know that certain dental conditions can affect your sleep quality. This is why we offer comprehensive services in dental sleep medicine, an area of dentistry focused on the treatment of sleep-related disorders such as snoring and obstructive sleep apnea.

Obstructive sleep apnea, a condition where the airway becomes blocked during sleep, can lead to a multitude of health issues if left untreated, including heart disease, stroke, and high blood pressure. Dentistry plays a unique role in the management of this condition, offering non-invasive treatment options designed to ensure an open airway while you sleep.

At Stephens Dentistry, Dr. Montoya, who holds a qualified dentist designation with the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine, screens all patients for irregular sleep patterns. We offer custom-made oral appliances, similar to sports mouthguards, that are designed to keep your airway open while you sleep, preventing the cessation of breathing that characterizes sleep apnea.

Our oral appliances are comfortable, portable, and easy to care for, making them a popular alternative to traditional CPAP machines. They work by gently adjusting the position of your jaw and tongue to increase the size of your upper airway, reducing air resistance that leads to snoring and sleep apnea.

Through our dental sleep medicine services, we aim to improve your sleep, enhancing your health, quality of life, and overall well-being. Contact Stephens Dentistry today to schedule a consultation and take the first step towards better sleep.
