Oral Appliances: Smaller, Less Noisy, and More Convenient Than CPAP
If you hate using a CPAP, you’re not alone. Big, noisy, and annoying, CPAP machines are often counterproductive and can cause side effects like acne or claustrophobia.
Did you know you may not even need CPAP for mild-to-moderate cases of sleep apnea? An oral appliance, otherwise known as an apnea mouthpiece, presents a portable and comfortable solution that can be just as effective as a CPAP without the disadvantages.
Snore guard and apnea mouthpieces are:
- Easy to use
- Custom-designed for your comfort
- Silent
- Portable
- Discreet
- Affordable

Meet Scott G. Clinton, DDS, ABDSM
I remember the day I wanted to become a dentist as if it were yesterday. In 3rd grade, it was the first time I went to the dentist, and I remember thinking, “This is so cool.”
Dentistry has been my passion ever since and it truly is a passion. I’ve been lucky enough to work in the field I love, and I bring this energy and determination to the office daily. You can see it in my staff, the process, and the results.
As a member of the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine, I’m well-positioned to help my patients find comfortable solutions to their sleep apnea and snoring problems. Every solution I provide in my office is a solution I believe in. In fact, I myself use a snore guard to live life with more spirit, intensity, and fulfillment.
If you’re suffering from sleep apnea or snoring, I genuinely hope that you contact me, at least to explore your options. There are affordable solutions to sleep apnea and they can absolutely change your life, just like they did mine.

How do I know if I have sleep apnea?
The best way to find out if you have sleep apnea is by undergoing a sleep study. A sleep study can be performed under the supervision of a physician in a lab, or in the privacy of your own home. It will record data such as oxygen levels, brain activity, and muscle movement and a physician will determine if you have sleep apnea. Then we can start treatment right away.
Can dentists treat sleep apnea?
Yes, dentists, like Dr. Clinton, who specializes in dental sleep medicine can offer treatments for snoring and sleep apnea. Dental sleep medicine is a dentistry area that focuses on using oral appliance therapy to treat sleep disorders, especially disordered breathing, snoring, and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Dentists work with physicians to determine your sleep disorder and the right treatment for you.
