SomnoMed For Physicians
Dentists work together with sleep physicians to diagnose and identify the most effective treatment for each patient. Here at SomnoMed, we work equally with dentists and sleep physicians to help them treat their patients and address the ever-increasing burden of OSA.
We help sleep physicians:
• Find a trusted sleep dentist they can work with in the long term
• Address misconceptions about oral appliances
• Promote and conduct clinical research in oral appliances
• Position oral appliances as a first-line therapy for mild and moderate OSA, and for patients who refuse or give up on CPAPPhysicians can contact us to find out more here: https://somnomed.com/en/physicians/physicians-contact/
SomnoMed For Patients
At SomnoMed, we believe that comfortable, custom-made oral appliances like SomnoDent® are an effective, first-line treatment for mild and moderate OSA. They are also the alternative OSA treatment for patients who are non-compliant or won’t try CPAP. Our oral appliances are FDA-cleared, custom-fitted, and, in most cases, insurance and Medicare approved! The appliance works by moving the lower jaw forward, clearing the airway and giving patients a safe and soundless sleep.
Whether a patient has been diagnosed with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) by a sleep physician and is ready to visit a sleep dentist, or is still at the very beginning of their OSA journey and still requires a proper sleep apnea diagnosis, we’re here to help patients find the proper providers in their area. Every patient is different, and we assist with each unique journey to finding a solution.

Why SomnoMed Devices
Both compliance and efficacy should be considered in the treatment of OSA. According to a published study1, custom-made oral devices offer clear, definable advantages, demonstrating significant clinical effectiveness, patient preference, and adherence.
Further, oral appliances should be considered first-line treatment for patients with symptomatic mild to moderate OSA, as most patients prefer this treatment to CPAP2 – and both treatments have been shown to be effective. At SomnoMed, we provide comfortable and successful first-line therapy or an effective CPAP alternative.
Are you ready to give yourself, your partner, and/or your patients a better night’s rest? Now you know where to begin. Join us – we’re here to help treat more OSA patients, more effectively!
