Snoring & Obstructive Sleep Apnea Treatment
CPAP Not For You?
| |
Previously, most respiratory physicians would prescribe nightly use of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) for the treatment of OSA. This method involves wearing a facemask connected to a pump that forces air into the air passages while the patient sleeps. The pressure of the machine is set high enough to overcome any obstruction.
Many patients find this treatment uncomfortable or intolerable and seek an alternate treatment method such as SomnoDent® MAS.

SomnoDent® MAS
| |
The SomnoDent® MAS is an oral device, which fits over the upper and lower teeth, much like a sports mouthguard. However unlike a sports mouthguard it is a discreet, precision-made and clinically-tested medical device that is recognized for its clinical validity by FDA,TGA, ISO 13485 and Swiss medic standards. Backed by over 7 Years of clinical research it is no wonder that the SomnoDent® MAS is known as the MAS GOLD STANDARD among Dental Sleep Professionals across the world.
In the vast majority of cases the SomnoDent® MAS is a highly effective treatment method for Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) with patients often having higher compliance rates than CPAP.
Three Good Reasons to Choose the SomnoDent® MAS:
• COMFORT: It is the most comfortable and discreet mandibular advancement splint available. The SomnoDent® MAS is a custom made device that allows for full range of mouth opening and closing. Its streamlined design also allows the patient to achieve full lip seal to prevent irritation from dry mouth.
• QUALITY AND PEACE OF MIND: Its effectiveness to treat mild to moderate OSA and snoring has been clinically validated. (Note: success in all cases cannot be guaranteed.)
• VALUE: It’s good value. Given the quality, comfort, likelihood of success, manufacturer’s warranty and long life of the appliance, it provides true value for money.
