Market Definition
Sleep apnea is a common sleep disorder that usually goes undiagnosed but has severe and life-threatening effects. The most common type of sleep apnea is obstructive sleep apnea. Due to patient non-compliance with positive airway pressure (PAP) devices, oral appliances are gaining popularity in treating sleep apnea. Oral appliance therapy (OAT) treats snoring and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients. OAT can be an effective treatment for patients who prefer oral appliances over continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or those unable to tolerate CPAP.
