Our Montgomery Sleep Apnea Treatment Provides Peaceful Sleep & Improved Health
Our Montgomery sleep apnea treatment will make you happier to face each day and help you enjoy peaceful rest at night. Though treatment is simple at Carmichael Dental Care, sleep apnea is a complicated condition that requires professional attention.

Sleep apnea patients that we have—although, as a dentist, we cannot diagnose sleep apnea, it is diagnosed through a sleep physician. There are a few options other than a CPAP machine. We do offer options of mouthguard pieces that can be made to help with sleep apnea.
What we're trying to do is open the airway into the back and this appliance, for most of them, works by pulling the lower jaw forward while you're wearing the appliance, without damage to the joint or muscle tissue, to open up the airway when you're relaxed. We have patients that CPAP machines are not comfortable, they have a hard time with the dryness and there's also having the full face or the nasal pad.
And the sleep bite system, or the apnea appliance, is the secondary group that we can do. CPAP has always been the number one piece to start with.
Dr. Chet Swartzentruber and our team treat you so you can:
- Stop snoring, which disrupts your sleep and the sleep of those who live with you
- Enjoy improved overall health, since sleep apnea is linked to serious medical conditions
- Enhance your ability to function in your career and relationships, since this has been known to cause exhaustion and irritation

Avoid The Dangers of Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Obstructive sleep apnea, the most common type, is caused by the soft tissues in the back of your throat collapsing at night while you’re sleeping. When this occurs, you’re unable to receive oxygen as you should, leading to:
- Increased risk of stroke, heart disease, and diabetes
- Consistent loud snoring
- Fatigue or exhaustion, even if you’ve slept a reasonable amount of time according to the clock
- Forgetfulness and/or confusion during the day
Your dentist performs a quick and easy exam called the Mallampati test to determine if your tongue, soft palate, or other areas of your mouth are affecting your breathing. He may also recommend a sleep study to confirm a diagnosis. Once he is sure you’re dealing with sleep apnea, he’ll provide your customized mouthguard to help you feel better each day and gain the rest you need each night.
