Sleep Apnea Mask Alternative in Del Mar
Sleep apnea mask alternatives in Del Mar from our Solana Beach practice, oral appliances and positional therapy designed for Del Mar patients who want effective treatment without masks.
Mask-Free Treatment
Sleep apnea mask alternatives in Del Mar exist. Many Del Mar patients quit CPAP therapy because masks are uncomfortable. They slip. They leak. They press on your face. Oral appliances and positional therapy work for Del Mar without masks.
Del Mar patients hate their masks. The straps leave marks. The air blows in your eyes. You cannot sleep on your side. You wake up frustrated. There is a better way. Dr. David F. Urich, DDS fits Del Mar patients with solutions that work without masks.
Oral appliances are the main mask alternative in Del Mar. A small device fits in your mouth like a retainer. It gently moves your lower jaw forward. Your airway opens. You breathe normally. No mask. No machine.
Positional therapy is another mask alternative in Del Mar. A wearable device trains you to sleep on your side. Your airway stays open. No mask needed. Both options work for Del Mar patients who quit CPAP because of discomfort. Del Mar patients reach our Solana Beach office for mask-free options with a two minute drive up the coast.
Your Del Mar alternative starts with a conversation. We review your sleep apnea history. We explain your options. We fit you with a device that works for your Del Mar lifestyle. Book your mask-free consultation in Del Mar today.
