Inspire® Implants for Obstructive Sleep Apnea Treatment in Irving

Our surgical team specializes in sophisticated treatments to help patients overcome persistent sleep interruptions, especially those who haven’t achieved results using a CPAP device.

Obstructive sleep apnea is a serious condition where the airway repeatedly closes, causing you to stop breathing for short intervals. These episodes disrupt your rest and can result in gasping or choking sounds. Dallas-Fort Worth Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery (DFWOMS) in Irving provides a variety of effective solutions to let you breathe freely and sleep soundly.

If left unmanaged, this condition can lead to significant health complications, including heart problems, high blood pressure, and persistent daytime fatigue that impacts your daily life. While CPAP therapy is a common treatment, our team offers alternative and advanced surgical solutions for Irving patients seeking a different path to relief.

Why Treating Obstructive Sleep Apnea Matters

Addressing your sleep apnea is vital for restoring your energy and protecting your long-term health. Proper treatment can dramatically improve your quality of life by reducing daytime drowsiness, sharpening mental focus, and lowering your risk for associated medical conditions. Our objective is to help you achieve restful nights and more productive days.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea Treatments in Irving

Our team assesses your specific condition to identify the most effective course of action. We offer several obstructive sleep apnea treatments, including:

Oral Appliance Therapy: We can design custom-fitted dental devices that gently move your lower jaw or tongue forward. This simple adjustment helps keep your airway open all night, offering a comfortable, nonsurgical solution for many patients.
Corrective Jaw Surgery: For individuals with certain structural issues, orthognathic surgery can create a permanent solution. By surgically repositioning the jaw, our surgeons establish a wider, more stable airway that directly addresses the root cause of the obstruction.
Soft Tissue Procedures: In some situations, excess tissue in the throat contributes to airway blockage. Our surgeons can perform procedures to carefully remove or reposition this tissue, making more space for air to pass through without interruption.

The Inspire® Implant: A CPAP Alternative in Irving

The Inspire® implant is a breakthrough for people with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea who cannot tolerate or benefit from CPAP. This treatment involves a small, surgically placed device that works inside your body with your natural breathing process. It monitors your breathing patterns and delivers gentle stimulation to the tongue muscle, moving it forward to keep your airway open. The device is controlled by a small handheld remote, letting you turn it on before bed and enjoy uninterrupted sleep without a mask or hose.
