    Sleep Apnea & Airway Treatment

    Tired of CPAP machines? Dr. Prentice offers comfortable alternatives—SomnoDent oral appliances, Tooth Pillow devices, and convenient at-home sleep testing to address the root cause of your sleep-disordered breathing.

    The Hidden Epidemic

    More Than Just Snoring

    Sleep apnea affects millions of Americans and is linked to serious health conditions— heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and cognitive decline. Many cases go undiagnosed.

    Snoring or gasping during sleep

    Waking up tired despite full night's sleep

    Morning headaches or jaw tension

    Daytime fatigue and difficulty concentrating

    Teeth grinding (bruxism) or clenching

    If you experience any of these symptoms, a simple at-home sleep test can provide answers— no overnight lab visit required.

    The Connection

    Why You Grind Your Teeth

    Grinding and clenching are often your body's attempt to keep the airway open during sleep. That's why a night guard alone doesn't stop the damage—it protects teeth but doesn't address the underlying cause. Treating the airway can eliminate grinding at its source.
