OrthoApnea

During sleep, the muscles which keep the respiratory tract open become relaxed. This makes it more difficult for air to pass through the pharynx, and the soft tissue vibrates, resulting in snoring. The lack of air flow often causes the level of oxygen to decrease in the blood. Consequently the brain is alerted which results in interrupted sleeping patterns.

This oxygen deficiency causes a number of syptoms such as excessive sleepiness, general tiredness, and depression. On a more general health level, there is also increased risk of high blood pressure, heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, etc.

The excessive sleepiness, memory loss and mood changes may influence the personal, working and social life of the individual affected and increase the possibility of suffering
an accident while at work or while driving a vehicle.

 

The most efficient solution

OrthoApnea is a new patented intraoral appliance designed for the treatment of snoring
and Sleep Apnea.

The mechanism is based on a controlled and comfortable advancement of the mandible,
which increases the musde tone in the respiratory tract area, allowing the air to flow freely.
As a result, snoring is eliminated and the episodes of apnea are reduced, resulting in a
better quality of life for the patients.

 

The efficiency of intraoral appliances for the treatment of these problems is attested to by the large volume of scientific literature available and a lot of research in this area.
