At Erskine Family Dentistry, we offer the SomnoDent® Sleep Apnea Appliance, a comfortable, non-invasive treatment designed to help patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). This custom-made oral appliance is an effective alternative to CPAP therapy, offering a convenient solution for better sleep quality. What is the SomnoDent® Sleep Apnea Appliance? The SomnoDent® appliance is a state-of-the-art dental device designed to reposition your lower jaw and open your airway while you sleep. This helps reduce or eliminate the airway blockages that cause snoring and sleep apnea, allowing you to breathe freely throughout the night.
• Comfortable and Discreet: The appliance is lightweight, comfortable, and easy to wear, offering a discreet solution for sleep apnea. • Non-Invasive Alternative to CPAP: Unlike traditional CPAP machines, the SomnoDent® appliance is a portable, non-invasive option for treating sleep apnea. • Improved Sleep Quality: By keeping your airway open, the appliance reduces interruptions in breathing, helping you achieve deeper, more restful sleep. • Custom Fit: Each appliance is custom-designed to fit your mouth perfectly, ensuring comfort and optimal effectiveness.
The device works by gently repositioning your lower jaw during sleep. This helps prevent the collapse of the soft tissues in your throat that cause airway obstruction. As a result, you breathe more easily, and the symptoms of sleep apnea, such as loud snoring and frequent awakenings, are significantly reduced or eliminated.
Convenience: It’s compact, portable, and easy to use—perfect for traveling or home use. Effective Treatment: Many patients find the SomnoDent® appliance an effective alternative or complement to CPAP therapy. Improved Health and Well-Being: Restful sleep can help reduce the risk of related health issues like high blood pressure, heart disease, and daytime fatigue. If you’re struggling with sleep apnea or loud snoring and want a comfortable, effective solution, the SomnoDent® Sleep Apnea Appliance could be right for you.

"I have had a LOT of dentists in my life (I've moved a zillion times) but the folks at Erskine Family are THE BEST I've EVER had by far. I just had two fillings redone in spots that have previously been very painful and problematic for other dentists to deal with. At Erskine, it could not have been a better experience, and the resin fillings look beautiful. They are so skilled, nice, helpful, and organized. Thank you all,"
