And the constant dry mouth? Fortunately, there are alternatives that can offer relief without the hassle. Sometimes, understanding the basics is the first step to solving the problem. So, what is OSA? Not cool, right? This blockage causes your oxygen levels to plummet all night. Your body has to interrupt your deep sleep repeatedly just to catch a breath. From personal experience, this constant disruption is anything but restful. You end up feeling like a zombie—drained, mentally foggy, and moody all day.
Over time, sleep apnea symptoms can seriously harm your heart, elevate blood pressure, and increase your risk of stroke and diabetes. So, we arrive at our familiar companion, the CPAP machine. Yes, it does its job by keeping your airway open with a blast of pressurized air, all thanks to that snug mask.
Studies indicate that up to half of all CPAP users eventually give it up due to the hassle. Clearly, we need a better solution, which is why so many people are searching for a CPAP alternative. Unlike traditional CPAP devices, the Vivos system is a non-surgical treatment that addresses the underlying causes of sleep apnea, primarily through dental and orthodontic approaches.
The Vivos System works by using a custom-made oral appliance worn at night, which can also help you stop snoring. This device gradually expands the jaw and increases the volume of the airway. As a result, many patients experience significant improvements not just in sleep quality, but in overall health and well-being. Ready to leave noisy, cumbersome CPAP behind? Consider speaking with Dr. Randall, a trust dental sleep medicine expert , on Vivos for a quieter, more restorative sleep—naturally.
The Inspire device consists of three small components implanted in your chest during a simple outpatient procedure. Research confirms Inspire significantly reduces nighttime awakenings, enhances oxygen levels, improves sleep quality, and boosts daytime energy and overall life quality. With over 25, users worldwide and a high satisfaction rate even after five years, many prefer Inspire over CPAP—a real breakthrough for those struggling with OSA. If the idea of implants seems too daunting, no worries.
