Helping Patients Sleep Better
We provide treatment to patients seeking relief from sleep apnea and snoring, as well as its associated conditions such as teeth grinding and fatigue. Specializing in oral appliance therapy as a non-surgical alternative to conventional treatment options, we are dedicated to improving patients’ sleep, overall health, and quality of life. Our patients can expect a comprehensive and patient-centered approach to addressing their sleep condition and related challenges.
Oral Appliance Therapy
A custom-fit oral appliance is an effective treatment option for sleep breathing disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea and snoring. The appliance can also help address the disorders’ associated challenges such as persistent fatigue and teeth grinding, among others.
Fitting much like a sports mouthguard, oral devices provide an alternative to CPAP and surgery. They work by repositioning the jaw to open the central airway and allow an unobstructed flow of oxygen. We offer a wide range of appliance options, which are then custom fit to the wearer to maximize the efficacy of the device and the relief that patients experience.

How do I know if I have Sleep Apnea?
With all the potential damage sleep apnea could be doing, it’s also scary that 80% or more of people with sleep apnea don’t know they have it.
There is only one way to diagnose sleep apnea: a sleep test. Would you like to learn whether you have sleep apnea in Custer, Rapid City, Spearfish, or Hot Springs?
