Our Process
The initial exam begins with a 15 to 20-minute review and evaluation of your medical history. By performing this screening exam, our doctors can decide the safest and most effective treatment. In some cases, further evaluation may be needed, or the solution may be as simple as prescribing basic home care.

Here at the Center for Sleep Apnea and TMJ, we focus on finding a non-surgical solution first. In fact, we specialize in non-surgical treatments. Surgery is only considered as a last resort when all other avenues of treatment have been explored.
Most of the treatments do not require the use of medications. In some cases, medication may be prescribed to help alleviate some of the pain caused by TMJ.
We specialize in solutions for people that are CPAP intolerant or can't use a CPAP machine.
The best treatment for sleep apnea is the use of a CPAP machine. However, not everyone can tolerate the treatment. In these cases where CPAP hasn’t been successful, we prescribe oral appliances that are worn at night.
Oral appliance therapy is a widely used and accepted method for treating sleep disordered breathing.
