What Is Adult Airway Sleep Dentistry and Who Does It Help?

Adult airway sleep dentistry is a branch of dental sleep medicine focused on identifying and treating breathing disorders during sleep, including snoring, upper airway resistance syndrome, and obstructive sleep apnea.

At Kinard Family Dental in Helotes, TX, Dr. Sarah Kinard, a Diplomate of the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine, leads this specialty for adult patients across San Antonio, Boerne, and Leon Valley.

If you wake up feeling unrested, snore regularly, experience daytime fatigue, or have been told you stop breathing during sleep, adult airway sleep dentistry may be the answer you have been looking for.

How Our Helotes Dentist Diagnoses Adult Sleep Apnea and Airway Issues

Diagnosis begins with a detailed sleep and symptom history, followed by a CBCT airway scan that produces a precise three-dimensional image of your airway, nasal passages, and jaw structure. When a sleep apnea diagnosis is needed, we coordinate at-home sleep testing through local specialists. Results are reviewed to determine the severity of the condition and the most appropriate treatment pathway.

Custom Oral Appliances for Sleep Apnea Treatment in Helotes and San Antonio

For patients with mild to moderate sleep apnea, or for those who cannot tolerate a CPAP machine, a custom oral appliance is an effective and comfortable alternative. The appliance is designed specifically for your bite and jaw anatomy, repositioning the lower jaw and tongue to keep the airway open during sleep. Oral appliance therapy is one of the most widely supported first-line treatments for sleep apnea recommended by dental sleep medicine guidelines. Kinard Family Dental fabricates appliances for patients from Helotes, San Antonio, Boerne, and Leon Valley.

Vivos Adult Sleep Apnea Treatment: Targeting the Structural Root Cause

Kinard Family Dental also offers Vivos adult treatment, a biomimetic oral appliance system that gradually remodels the adult airway by expanding the palate and improving jaw dimensions. Unlike oral appliances that only reposition the jaw during sleep, Vivos aims to create structural improvements over time that may reduce or eliminate the underlying cause of the sleep apnea.

Treatment is non-surgical and is monitored through regular follow-up visits and periodic airway reassessments. Vivos is suitable for qualifying adults who want a long-term solution rather than a nightly management device.
