Welcome To The Sleep Apnea & TMJ Treatment Center

of Dr. Robert Stoddard

Our goal is to manage sleep apnea and snoring for those who are CPAP intolerant or those who do not require CPAP. To help you accomplish this, you will find information to better understand sleep apnea and snoring, along with treatments for these sleep disrupting problems. One of these treatments is the use of a special oral appliance. Dental management with oral appliances just may be the solution you are looking for.

Are you constantly having headaches? Do you clench your teeth? Does your jaw pop, click, or lock? Perhaps you’re tired of taking Advil or Excedrin, or maybe they are not effective. You may be experiencing what we call craniofacial related pain. The good news is, we may be able to help. Our conservative, non-surgical treatment is provided in a comfortable and friendly environment by staff that are trained in excellence.
