Sleep Apnea Care at Reston Heights Dental

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) happens when the airway collapses during sleep, causing repeated breathing pauses that fragment rest and lower oxygen levels. We partner with local sleep physicians to confirm diagnosis and provide comfortable, custom-fit oral appliances for patients in Reston, Virginia who prefer a non-CPAP approach.

How Oral Appliance Therapy Works

A slim, night-only device positions your lower jaw slightly forward to help prevent airway collapse. Many patients find it easier to wear than CPAP, and it’s quiet and travel-friendly.

  • Custom, Comfortable Fit Digital impressions create a low-profile device that feels natural. Great for: mild to moderate OSA or CPAP-intolerant patients
  • No Mask or Hoses Sleep freely without bulk, noise, or power cords.
  • Physician-Collaborative Care We coordinate testing and follow-up for measurable results.
  • Medically Oriented Often eligible for medical insurance coverage with a diagnosis.

Your Treatment Journey

Most patients complete care in just a few visits, with adjustments for comfort and effectiveness.

  • Consultation & screening; referral for a home or lab sleep study if needed
  • Digital scans to design a precise, compact appliance
  • Fitting and titration (jaw positioning) to open the airway comfortably
  • Follow-up with your sleep physician and periodic checks to maintain results

Technology, Candidacy & Coverage

We use iTero digital impressions for accuracy; CBCT and bite analysis may be recommended in select cases to protect your joints and teeth. Ideal candidates have mild to moderate OSA or cannot tolerate CPAP. Many medical plans help cover oral appliance therapy once OSA is diagnosed—our team can guide claims and financing.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sleep Apnea

How do I know if I have sleep apnea?
The only way to confirm OSA is with a sleep study. We can coordinate a physician referral for testing based on your symptoms.
Is an oral appliance as effective as CPAP?
For many patients with mild to moderate OSA, a custom device is a comfortable, evidence-based alternative. Your sleep physician helps verify improvement after titration.
Will the appliance be comfortable?
Yes. It’s slim and custom-fit from digital scans. Most patients adapt within a few nights and appreciate the quiet, travel-friendly design.
How long does it take to get my device?
After scans, most appliances are delivered in about 2–3 weeks, followed by fine-tuning for comfort and airway patency.
Do I need a sleep study if I already snore?
Yes—snoring alone doesn’t confirm OSA. A formal diagnosis guides treatment and is typically required for medical insurance coverage.
Is this covered by insurance?
Often yes, through medical insurance with a documented OSA diagnosis. We’ll review your benefits and help with claims.
What if I grind my teeth at night?
Many oral appliances also protect teeth like a nightguard. We’ll evaluate your bite and recommend the right design.
Will I need to wear it forever?
OSA is usually long-term. Wearing your appliance nightly helps maintain an open airway and better sleep.
Are there side effects?
Mild jaw or tooth soreness can occur early on and usually resolves with adjustments. We monitor your progress to keep you comfortable.
