Sleep apnea explained
Sleep apnea is one of several types of sleep-disordered breathing. While it can have multiple causes, obstructive sleep apnea is the most common and involves blockage of the airway in either the throat or nasal passages. When this occurs, your ability to breathe is impaired, and your brain and other vital organs can become deprived of oxygen. Many people living with sleep apnea are unaware that they have the condition, but some of the signs and symptoms include chronic snoring, feeling tired throughout the day, and waking up frequently throughout the night.
What sets OASYS apart
After careful analysis of the available FDA-approved oral appliance options, Dr. Rushi Sangha and Dr. Praj Kamat decided to offer the OASYS system to their clients. Because it was the only oral appliance that addressed blockages in both the throat and nasal region, which are two of the most common causes of obstructive sleep apnea. OASYS offers clients:
- Improved ease of breathing
- Reduced snoring
- A reduction in obstructive sleep apnea symptoms
- Convenience
- Comfort
