Oral Appliance Therapy Could Help Sleep Apnea Sufferers

There is a new study out and it seems it stands to provide another alternative to people suffering from obstructive sleep apnea. Oral Appliance Therapy is the new alternative towards resolving the sleep apnea issue, backed by a study which experimented on people aged from 31 to 53.

After beginning some appliance oral therapy, the said patients showed effective improvement as far as sleep apnea reactions are concerned. Mandibular advancement appliances (MAA) have been shown to safely and effectively treat mild to moderate OSA. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of two different MAA over time from a previous comparative study (PCS).

This Canada-based study included four women and 10 men who had participated in a PCS that tested two oral appliances in a randomized cross-over design. The participants were 52 years of age on average.
