What is Obstructive Sleep Apnea?Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is emerging as one of the most
widespread and costly health issues in the U.S. OSA is known to
affect more than 18 million Americans, including men, women, and
children. Studies show that OSA carries a strong genetic component
and in some cases can be hereditary.* The disease is characterized by
upper airway obstruction, associated with repeated gaps in breathing
and interrupted sleep. People with obstructive sleep apnea are at
serious risk of the below medical problems and accidents:
• Stroke*
• Heart Attack*
• Obesity*
• Diabetes*
• Motor Vehicle Accidents*
• Up to 20% of adults and 10% of children suffer from sleep apnea*
• Children with sleep breathing disorders can also suffer from behavioralproblems and lower IQ*
• 85% of people with sleep apnea are undiagnosed*
• The estimated US economic cost of OSA is more than $65 billion*
Did You Know?
What are leading orthodontists saying about sleep apnea?“The mounting body of evidence connecting serious health disorders to sleep apnea points to the
necessity of making the treatment of this condition a standard of care in all orthodontic practices.”
Dr. Ron Redmond
“Newly developed technologies and scientifically validated protocols now enable orthodontists
to effectively treat people with sleep apnea.”
Dr. David Paquette
“The peer-reviewed literature makes it abundantly clear that untreated sleep-disordered breathing
is at best, seriously debilitating and costly to the healthcare system, and at worst, life threatening.”
Dr. Paul Damon
