\n
<\/span>Is obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) a disease?<\/div>
Yes, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a chronic disease.<\/div><\/div>\n
<\/span>My child snores at night and complains of headaches when they wake up and often falls asleep during the day. Can they suffer from obstructive sleep apnea at their age?<\/div>
Yes, this disease affects people of all ages.<\/div><\/div>\n
<\/span>Do all snorers suffer from obstructive sleep apnea?<\/div>
No, not necessarily. A medical diagnosis can confirm it.<\/div><\/div>\n
<\/span>Can I choose to have my sleep test done at home instead of at the lab?
\n<\/div>
Your doctor will prescribe the appropriate method for your condition, either a laboratory polysomnography (PSG) or a non-laboratory cardiorespiratory sleep polygraph (CRSP).<\/div><\/div>\n
<\/span>How is obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) treated?
\n<\/div>
Two therapies have been shown to be effective in treating obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a breathing device and an intraoral device, the mandibular advancement orthotic (MAO).
\n<\/div><\/div>\n
<\/span>Will a snoring appliance move my jaws?<\/div>
If the appliance is properly fitted and the post-insertion follow-up is consistent, especially during the first year, very few irreversible complications occur.<\/div><\/div>\n
<\/span>Why do I need to see a dentist if my doctor is prescribing the Mandibular Advancement Brace (MAB)?<\/div>
The dentist, according to the doctor’s prescription, performs a specific oral examination, designs the brace, puts it in the mouth, makes the necessary adjustments and ensures the follow-up of the treatment in collaboration with the doctor.

<\/span>What size is my mandibular advancement appliance (MAD)?<\/div>
The size is based on your oral and craniofacial morphology. The appliance covers the upper and lower teeth, keeping the mandible in an advanced position to clear your airway.<\/div><\/div>\n
<\/span>Will my mandibular advancement appliance (MAD) be covered by the Qu\u00e9bec Health Insurance Plan (RAMQ)?<\/div>
No, but the costs may be eligible for the medical expense tax credit. You can ask your insurance company or certain government agencies for more information.<\/div><\/div>\n
<\/span>Can I reduce my symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)?<\/div>
Yes! Adopting healthy lifestyle habits, such as maintaining a healthy weight, regular exercise, moderate alcohol consumption and not smoking will reduce your symptoms. Your sleep hygiene can also minimize your symptoms. Having a regular sleep routine and limit your exposure to light at night (TV, computer or game console).<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
