Inspire® Implants for Obstructive Sleep Apnea Treatment in Dallas-Fort Worth

Our surgeons provide advanced solutions for patients who struggle with interrupted sleep, including those who have not found success with CPAP machines.

Obstructive sleep apnea is a condition in which your airway repeatedly becomes blocked during sleep, causing you to stop breathing for brief periods. These interruptions disrupt your rest and can lead to gasping or choking sounds. Dallas-Fort Worth Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery (DFWOMS) offers a range of effective options to help you breathe freely and sleep soundly again.

Untreated, sleep apnea can contribute to serious health issues, including heart problems, high blood pressure, and daytime fatigue that affects your daily life. While CPAP therapy is a common approach, our team provides alternative and advanced surgical solutions for patients seeking a different path to relief.

Why Treating Obstructive Sleep Apnea Matters

Addressing your sleep apnea is crucial for restoring your energy and protecting your long-term health. Effective treatment can dramatically improve your quality of life by reducing daytime sleepiness, enhancing mental clarity, and lowering your risk for associated medical conditions. Our goal is to help you achieve restful nights and more productive days.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea Treatments in Dallas-Fort Worth

Our team evaluates your specific condition to determine the most effective course of action. We offer several obstructive sleep apnea treatments, including:

Oral Appliance Therapy: We can create custom-fitted dental devices that gently reposition your lower jaw or tongue. This simple adjustment helps keep your airway open throughout the night, providing a comfortable, nonsurgical solution for many patients.
Corrective Jaw Surgery: For individuals with specific structural issues, orthognathic surgery can provide a permanent solution. By surgically repositioning the jaw, our surgeons create a wider, more stable airway, directly addressing the root cause of the obstruction.
Soft Tissue Procedures: In some cases, excess tissue in the throat contributes to airway blockage. Our surgeons can perform procedures to carefully remove or reposition this tissue, creating more space for air to pass through freely and quietly.

The Inspire® Implant: A CPAP Alternative in Dallas-Fort Worth

The Inspire® implant is a breakthrough for individuals with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea who do not respond well to CPAP and other treatment methods. The Inspire treatment involves a small surgically placed device that works inside your body with your natural breathing process. It monitors your breathing patterns and delivers a gentle stimulation to the tongue muscle, moving it forward to keep your airway open. The device is controlled by a small, handheld remote, allowing you to turn it on before bed and enjoy uninterrupted sleep without a mask or hose.
