Sleep Apnea

Breathe Better. Sleep Deeper. Live Healthier.

If you snore loudly, wake up feeling tired, or struggle with daytime fatigue, you could be suffering from sleep apnea—a serious health condition that affects your breathing during sleep. At Kraner Family Dentistry, we offer comfortable, non-invasive oral appliance therapy as an alternative to CPAP machines for many patients with obstructive sleep apnea.

What Is Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)?

OSA occurs when the airway becomes blocked during sleep, causing breathing to stop and restart multiple times throughout the night. This can prevent restful sleep and put significant strain on your heart, brain, and overall health.

How We Can Help

For patients diagnosed with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea, or those who can’t tolerate a CPAP, oral appliance therapy can be a life-changing solution. These custom-made devices gently reposition the lower jaw during sleep to keep the airway open and reduce snoring and apnea episodes.

Benefits of Oral Appliance Therapy:

  • Small, portable, and easy to wear
  • Quiet and comfortable—no hoses, masks, or machines
  • Custom-fit for maximum effectiveness
  • Can improve energy, focus, and quality of life

Our Process at KFD:

  1. Screening & Consultation – We’ll discuss your symptoms and review any existing sleep study results.
  2. Custom Appliance Design – Digital impressions are taken for a precise, comfortable fit.
  3. Fitting & Follow-Up – You’ll receive your appliance and guidance on proper use and care.
  4. Ongoing Monitoring – We’ll track your progress and make adjustments as needed for optimal results.

Sleep plays a vital role in your overall health and so does breathing.
If you suspect sleep apnea or struggle with your CPAP, we’re here to help.
