Research and clinical trials using earlier models of the current
model of SomnoDent™
MAS
conducted by the Department
of Respiratory and Sleep
Medicine at St George Hospital, Sydney have
found a high level
of acceptance and tolerance amongst patients and concluded that
the SomnoDent™
MAS is a viable alternative to CPAP in the treatment of OSA.

For Sleep Apnea Suffers
Is the SomnoDent MAS™ for you?
The SomnoDent™ MAS is an effective treatment for both mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea.
OSA is characterized by repeated cycles of partial or complete collapse of the upper airway during sleep. This results in a cessation or reduction of breathing and a decrease in blood oxygen levels resulting in typically unremembered awakenings.
The severity of OSA is defined by the number of these occurrences per hour of sleep. These episodes of obstruction, and resultant awakening of the OSA sufferer occur five or more times per hour, potentially causing marked sleep disruption.
OSA is generally defined as being in the Mild to Moderate level where the SomnoDent™ MAS could be an effective treatment for you.
The levels of OSA severity are generally defined as follows:
| TYPE OF OSA | Number of Occurrences/Hr |
| Mild OSA | 5 to 15 |
| Moderate OSA | 15 to 30 |
| Severe OSA | 30 plus |
Key Points:
-
The SomnoDent™ MAS is clinically validated for the treatment of snoring and OSA
-
The SomnoDent™ MAS has helped people who have tried other OSA treatments and been unsuccessful or have not complied with their CPAP treatment.
-
The American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommend oral appliances as a first line of treatment for snoring and mild to moderate OSA.
