Are you struggling with poor sleep, snoring, or daytime fatigue? You’re not alone—and you’re not without solutions. At Impressions Dentistry, we help patients rediscover restful sleep and better health through customized sleep apnea treatment in Olympia.
Understanding Sleep Apnea: A Common but Treatable Condition
Sleep apnea affects millions of people across the country, many of whom don’t realize it’s the cause of their restless nights and groggy mornings. The good news? With an accurate diagnosis and the right treatment, you can reclaim your sleep and your quality of life.
What Is Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)?
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is the most common form of sleep apnea and occurs when the muscles in your throat relax during sleep, causing your airway to narrow or close. This can lead to brief pauses in breathing, often followed by gasping, choking, or snoring.
OSA can affect people of all ages and body types, and its impact ranges from disrupted sleep to more serious health concerns when left untreated. But with timely care, OSA is highly manageable—and often without the need for bulky machines or surgery.

Oral Appliance Therapy: Comfortable, Customized Relief
If you’re looking for a quiet, comfortable alternative to CPAP, oral appliance therapy may be the right fit. This proven treatment is easy to use and effective for patients with mild to moderate sleep apnea.
How It Works
The oral appliance is a small, custom-fitted device that gently repositions your lower jaw to keep your airway open while you sleep. It’s worn only at night and is similar in size to a sports mouthguard.
This treatment works by preventing your tongue and soft tissues from collapsing into the airway, eliminating the source of obstruction without the need for forced air or noise.
Benefits of Oral Appliances
Oral appliance therapy offers real results in a simple, non-invasive format. Many patients appreciate that it’s:
- Easy to wear and get used to
- Quiet and discreet
- Portable for travel
- Easy to clean and maintain
- Typically covered by medical insurance
- Custom-fitted and FDA-approved
You’ll wake up feeling more rested without bulky hoses or uncomfortable straps.
