Sleep apnea refers to a temporary cessation of breathing while sleeping. Many times the airway is obstructed by the patient’s anatomy, and the placement of a specially designed night guard that repositions the lower jaw can improve the airflow. These appliances are also useful in the treatment of snoring. Dr. Koslowski has received over 60 hours of comprehensive training at UCLA in Dental Sleep Medicine, and is uniquely qualified to work as part of your medical team in the management of these Sleep Related Breathing Disorders.
