How Can We Help You Get Restful Sleep?
Snoring Affects My Relationship
Is snoring driving a wedge between you and your partner? If you or your loved one snores, it could be more than just a sleep-depriving nuisance; it could be a sign of a potentially serious health condition called “obstructive sleep apnea”.
I Wake Up Tired After A Full Night’s Sleep
While this scenario is perplexing, it’s not uncommon for those who have untreated sleep apnea. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a sleep disorder that causes sleep deprivation and leaves people feeling persistently fatigued.
I Need An Alternative To CPAP
Do you feel like your continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine is more trouble than it’s worth? If you’re tired of cleaning it daily and having hoses obstruct your movement during sleep, there is an alternative.

Transform Your Life with the Miracle of Sleep
Andrea consulted with Indy Dental Sleep with a concern for snoring that had resulting in disturbing his wife to the degree that she was sleeping in another room. He monitored his sleep quality with his apple watch and realized his problem was more than snoring. He did some research discovering C-PAP was the typical solution for his problem.
He was concerned that he would not be able to tolerate C-PAP. We tested Andre with a home sleep study with a diagnosis of moderate sleep apnea from our sleep physician, who recommended an oral appliance for sleep apnea. The most appropriate solution for Andre was an Oral Sleep Appliance. And not C-PAP. In this video Andre shares his experience.
