Sleep Apnea
Sleep apnea disrupts healthy breathing and sleep. We provide comfortable, non-surgical therapies that restore rest and protect long-term health.
Understanding Sleep Apnea
Sleep apnea is a serious condition where the airway collapses or becomes blocked during sleep, disrupting breathing and lowering oxygen levels. Left untreated, it can increase risks for heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and chronic fatigue. At the TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre of Kansas City, we provide accurate diagnosis and non-surgical therapies that improve sleep quality and protect overall health.
When To Seek This Treatment

Airway Collapse

Tongue Position

A retruded or small jaw reduces airway space and increases obstruction risk.

Low muscle tone allows tissues to collapse during sleep.

Excess Weight
