At Frederick TMJ & Sleep, our commitment lies in tackling sleep disorders with state-of-the-art technology and expert care. Our team, led by highly skilled professionals, specializes in identifying and treating obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). OSA is a critical condition that disrupts oxygen flow during sleep, leading to frequent awakenings and severe health consequences.
Recognizing the increasing diagnosis rates of OSA, our team at Frederick TMJ & Sleep is dedicated to developing and implementing innovative, effective, and personalized treatment strategies. Our excitement is palpable as we introduce three revolutionary technologies to our practice: at-home sleep monitoring, 3D printed oral appliances, and advanced digital impression techniques. These cutting-edge tools allow us to provide precise and customized treatment plans, ensuring that we remain at the forefront of OSA treatment and management.
At Frederick TMJ & Sleep, we prioritize obtaining the accurate diagnosis of sleep disorders from a qualified medical professional and offer advanced, convenient solutions for our patients. Our approach includes measuring the effectiveness of you Oral Sleep appliance through take-home technology. This allows us to measure certain sleep metrics, over several nights, and customize the modifications to your appliance.
Once we have completed the modification of the sleep appliance, we will refer you back to your sleep medical professional to evaluate the impact the appliance has on your medical condition. They will sometimes order a follow up Sleep Test depending upon your medical condition.
Digital Impressions
Say goodbye to the discomfort of traditional putty impressions. At Frederick TMJ & Sleep, we embrace state-of-the-art digital scanners to capture precise impressions of your teeth and jaws. This non-invasive, painless approach eliminates the need for physical molds, providing a gag-free and more comfortable patient experience. Digital impressions also enhance treatment efficiency and accuracy, streamlining your journey to better sleep and dental health.
3D Printed Oral Appliance
While CPAP machines are a standard treatment for sleep apnea, they can be bulky and uncomfortable for some. As an alternative, Frederick TMJ & Sleep offers oral appliances. These devices are designed to subtly shift your jaw forward, maintaining an open airway during sleep. Using our digital impressions, we have these personalized appliances fabricated in a FDA approved lab. They utilize advanced CAD/CAM technology, ensuring a perfect fit.
