Visit us at www.AADSM.org/forpatients for more information. Oral appliance therapy (OAT) is a clinically proven treatment for millions of patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). OAT is far less cumbersome than traditional CPAP therapy because OAT devices are easy to use, comfortable, noise-free, portable, and do not require electricity or distilled water. Patient satisfaction and compliance are significantly higher with OAT than CPAP. OAT devices are custom-made, covered by most health insurance plans, and delivered and adjusted by a qualified dentist trained to ensure proper fit and maximum effectiveness.
