For Bariatric Surgeons

As a bariatric surgeon, you recognize the critical connection between obesity and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Treating sleep apnea effectively can not only improve your patients’ overall health but also support their weight loss journey and surgical outcomes. We offer custom oral appliances designed to provide a comfortable, non-invasive solution for sleep apnea, empowering you to offer comprehensive care tailored to your patients’ unique needs.

Why Choose Custom Oral Appliances?

Custom oral appliances offer an innovative, patient-friendly solution to manage sleep apnea. Compact, comfortable, and highly customizable, these devices address the structural causes of OSA, providing an alternative or complement to traditional therapies. Here’s why they’re an excellent addition to your bariatric practice:

#1: Increased Patient Compliance

For many patients, CPAP therapy is difficult to tolerate due to its bulkiness or complexity, leading to inconsistent use. Custom oral appliances are discreet, portable, and easy to wear, helping patients adhere to their treatment and experience better outcomes.

#2: Supports Weight Loss Goals

Sleep apnea disrupts restful sleep and can interfere with metabolism and hormonal regulation, which are crucial for weight loss. By improving sleep quality, oral appliances can help patients achieve better energy levels and support their weight management efforts.

#3: Non-Invasive and Adjustable

Custom oral appliances provide a non-invasive treatment option for sleep apnea, making them particularly suitable for patients preparing for or recovering from bariatric surgery. Their adjustable design ensures a personalized fit that adapts to patients’ changing needs as they lose weight.

#4: Complementary to Your Surgical Approach

For patients undergoing bariatric surgery, treating sleep apnea is often a critical step in preoperative preparation and postoperative care. Custom oral appliances can serve as a standalone therapy or supplement CPAP use, ensuring patients receive comprehensive care tailored to their health goals.
