Welcome to Channel Islands Family Dental

What is sleep apnea?

Do you wake up tired even after sleeping a full night? Does your partner complain about your loud snoring? Do you feel sleepy during the day no matter how much you rest?

These signs may point to sleep apnea, a common condition that affects millions of people. Many live with it for years without knowing. The good news is that help is available right here in Oxnard.

At Channel Islands Family Dental Office, our experienced dentists in Oxnard are trained to identify and treat sleep apnea. We offer comfortable, effective solutions that can help you sleep better and feel healthier.

Sleep apnea is a serious condition where your breathing stops and starts repeatedly during sleep. 

  • These pauses can happen dozens or even hundreds of times each night. 
  • Each time it happens, your brain briefly wakes you up to restart breathing—often without you realizing it.

This constant interruption prevents you from reaching deep and restorative sleep. Your body never gets the rest it needs.

Types of sleep apnea

There are three main types of sleep apnea:

  • Obstructive sleep apnea is the most common type. It happens when the muscles in your throat relax too much during sleep. This blocks your airway and stops air from reaching your lungs.
  • Central sleep apnea occurs when your brain does not send the right signals to the muscles that control breathing. This type is less common.
  • Complex sleep apnea is a combination of both obstructive and central sleep apnea.

Most patients we see in Oxnard have obstructive sleep apnea. The encouraging news is that this type responds very well to sleep apnea treatment provided by dental professionals.

Treatment for sleep apnea in Oxnard

At Channel Islands Family Dental Office, we provide personalized sleep apnea treatment right here in Oxnard. Our approach includes:

  • Complete evaluation: We carefully review your symptoms, sleep patterns, and medical history.
  • Custom oral appliances: We specialize in comfortable oral appliances for sleep apnea. These custom-made devices (also called mandibular advancement devices) gently move your lower jaw forward. This keeps your airway open while you sleep.
  • Personalized follow-up: We monitor your progress and adjust your treatment as needed to ensure the best results.
  • Coordinated care: When necessary, we work closely with sleep physicians to provide comprehensive care.

For some patients, other treatments may be recommended. These can include CPAP machines, adaptive servo-ventilation, lifestyle changes, or surgery. We will discuss all options and help you find the treatment that works best for your situation.
