Be Free From Sleep Apnea Symptoms

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), the most common type of sleep apnea, occurs when your airway becomes temporarily blocked repeatedly throughout your sleep. Your tongue and other soft tissues in the back of your throat are the culprits, as they relax and block your airflow. In severe sleep apnea, this repeated blockage can happen hundreds of times a night, usually without the sufferer being aware of it.

Dr. Goodman can help both adults and children with their sleep apnea symptoms. He is specially trained to provide treatment using the Vivos system. He will partner with a board-certified sleep physician to diagnose OSA for you or your loved one. He can then design a special oral device to gently shape and open up the airway over 12-24 months. The Vivos biomimetic oral appliance is different from other types of sleep apnea treatment that must be used for life:

• After treatment with Vivos, many patients do not require any further treatment for sleep apnea.
• You won’t have to deal with a bulky, loud, cumbersome CPAP machine.
• While CPAP therapy works well for treating sleep apnea, many patients have trouble getting used to wearing a mask while they sleep.
• CPAP therapy doesn’t deal with the underlying problem, which is often a narrow airway; it merely treats the symptoms of sleep apnea.

The Vivos approach is revolutionary. It provides real, effective therapy that eliminates the cause of sleep problem. It is a team-based approach, as Dr. Goodman will work with a physician to get you the help you need. All you have to do is wear your appliance and come into our office periodically so we can make adjustments to it.
