The Oral Appliance Package

The sleep apnea program at Lighthouse Sleep Apnea Center took several years to develop. We interviewed countless individuals who believed they had sleep apnea but had not yet been tested.  We also interviewed many people who had already been tested, had sleep apnea and were using a CPAP.  Our findings indicated there was a severe gap between what the patients needed and what the industry provided.

For those who had not been tested we heard over and over:  The testing process is too complicated, too expensive, involved going to several offices on their own to receive results and treatment.

 

For those who had received treatment we heard:  After receiving the CPAP or initial treatment we were never tested again to see if it actually worked.  Options other than CPAP were not offered.  We never saw our sleep doctor again.

 

We took our findings and developed a comprehensive process that takes our patients from start to finish and beyond all at our office.  Everything from the FREE Preliminary testing, through the comfortable home sleep tests to the COMPLETE Oral Appliance Package that makes sure your oral appliance operates at its Optimal Level! Some patients have a severe reduction in airflow or have medical anatomical issues restricting airflow.  These situations require the use of a CPAP; a visit to an ENT physician or both.  

 

Once the testing indicates our patient can benefit from an oral appliance or if a patient cannot tolerate a CPAP machine we have the Complete Oral Appliance Package.  The package includes not only the oral sleep appliance but all testing to ensure optimal results all at one low price.  WE DO NOT GUESS!

 

Here is how it works:

  1. We use the Eccovision jigs to determine the EXACT Optimal placement settings for the oral appliance to maximize effectiveness. NO GUESSING! Eccovision determines both vertical opening as well as protrusion of the jaw settings.  

  2. We use the state-of-the-art PRIMESCAN digital scanner to scan your mouth.  NO MOLDS!  The scan and the settings are sent to the lab for your custom made top of the line Oral Appliance.

  3. We use only the newest and best oral appliances available on the market.  We include optional features at no additional cost such as:

    • Larger opening at the back of the appliance for easier breathing if required.

    • Extremely precise 1/2MM adjustments to the device for maximum effectiveness.

    • Distal Wrap for comfort and stability.

    • Cheek protector for maximum comfort. 

    • A soft inner liner which allows for future dental work to be completed without requiring the manufacture of a new appliance.  Also maximizes comfort and reduces the possibility of tooth movement. 

    • 3-year warranty on workmanship, materials and loss (with restrictions).

  4. Delivery:  Once the oral appliance arrives we put you back on the Eccovision to make sure the device is at the optimal settings.  If needed we can adjust your appliance at any time in 1/2mm adjustments.  Again, NO GUESSING!

  5. 2-day follow-up call to see how you are doing.

  6. 2 week in person follow-up. Eccovision testing and adjustments if needed.

  7. 1 month follow-up home sleep test while wearing the appliance.

  8. 6 month in person follow-up.  Eccovovision testing and adjustments if needed.

  9. Unlimited office visits and testing in the first 12 months (if needed).

 

What good is an oral appliance or CPAP if you do not know it is working?  Our program is designed to ensure your appliance is working properly and testing to ensure your treatment is actually working.  All for one low price and at one location.  We hold your hand from start to finish.  We look forward to seeing you soon.
