Dental Appliance Therapy
We offer our patients a comprehensive evaluation to diagnose sleep apnea implementing the latest testing equipment available. Dr. Perman works closely with a team of sleep specialists, respiratory therapists, and psychologists to offer each patient a customized sleep therapy appliance designed to help the patient overcome their sleep disorder. Comprehensive monitoring equipment is then used to track the effectiveness of the appliance to ensure the treatment is working effectively.
Most medical insurance policies will pay for oral appliances to treat obstructive sleep apnea. Please review the questionnaire below.
1) Have you ever been told that you snore?
2) Do you have difficulty falling or staying asleep?
3) When you awaken in the morning, do you feel unrested despite a full night in bed?
4) Do you ever awaken from sleep with a sensation of choking or gasping?
5) Are you ever sleepy during the day while engaging in sedentary activities (driving, reading, sitting in a meeting, a lecture, the theater, or watching TV)?
If you responded yes to 3 or more of the above questions you may have a sleep disorder. Please print and fill out the below file so we can better help diagnose your condition.
