Do you or a loved one suffer from snoring or obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)?

If YES, before you consider any irreversible surgery - which can be painful and vary in success rate- consider a non-surgical and non-CPAP alternative.          

Intra-Oral Appliances – Basics:

• Intra-oral appliances are well tried and tested (for 25 years or more).
• They work for snoring and mild, moderate and severe sleep apnea.
• Extra training and expertise is required to diagnose and treat this condition.
• It is always done with additional input of MD and/or MD specialist.
• Appliances last many years.
• There are several different types of appliance for different diagnoses and purposes.
• Most sleep centers in North America use appliances routinely.
• MSI currently refuses (despite my vigorous efforts) to become involved in funding but this may change. For information contact “Quickcard” at 492-2111 or toll free at 1-888-846-4484.
• Currently, fees are between $750.00 and $ 3,000.00 depending on the type and purpose of appliance. Fees can be billed over one year if desired.
• If you would like a consultation, please call 422-5454.
• All procedures are non-cumbersome/reversible i.e. non-surgical and non-invasive with no surgery / anesthetic. (Throat and nasal surgery have, at best, a one in three success rate.)
• Please remember this is a serious condition and requires treatment quickly and effectively.
• Snoring may be at the “low end” of a condition called sleep apnea but it can be very disruptive in a family setting. The noise level is often above that allowed in industrial settings!
• CPAP “compliance” is, at best, 50%! (definition of compliance: compliance is defined by the OED as "the act of complying").
