Thrive’s Utilization of Static Appliances for Sleep and Breathing Disorders (CPAP Option 2)
Dr. Nolf covers a second option that patients can choose to reduce the frequency of sleep apnea events. A Static appliance can be placed into the mouth during sleep to pull the lower jaw forward and keep the airway open. He notes, however, that this option needs to be used indefinitely, as it does not correct the root cause of sleep-disordered breathing.
