Not Tolerating Your CPAP Mask? Tired from Sleep Apnea in Silicon Valley California? Call Sleep Apnea Dentist J. Brent Gorrell D.D.S.

    MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA, January 21, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- With CPAP compliance at less than 50%, it's important that sleep apnea sufferers who are not using their prescribed CPAP machine or can't tolerate it discuss oral appliance therapy with their doctor.

He offers an oral appliance alternative to CPAP for sleep apnea and snoring suffers who can't tolerate CPAP.

Research suggests that the number of people with life-threatening sleep apnea will increase as the population ages. Weight gain is also linked with sleep apnea, which means 1/3 of the adult population reported by the CDC as obese may well have undiagnosed sleep apnea.

While prescribed CPAP is considered the "gold standard" in sleep apnea treatment, many sleep-challenged folks are now opting to breath easy with a lightweight dental appliance that keep the airway open, ensuring a restful night sleep.

Below is a dental appliance testimonial excerpt from a Wall Street Journal feature article:

"When he started waking in the middle of the night choking, Dave Morton, a 35-year-old co-president of an online car-rental company in New York, sought help. At a sleep lab, he was diagnosed with sleep apnea, and his doctor prescribed a CPAP machine."

"After two years of on-and-off CPAP use, Mr. Morton switched to a dental appliance. He was tested in a sleep lab with the appliance, and his apnea score dropped sharply. "I'm happier and healthier," he said. 'I can tell my brain is working better again'."
