Effective Sleep Apnea Treatment with Dynaflex Dental Sleep Devices

At Pinellas Family Dental, we know that good sleep is foundational to your health, energy, and daily life. For many patients dealing with chronic snoring or blocked breathing during sleep (obstructive sleep apnea, or OSA), traditional CPAP machines can feel uncomfortable or impractical. That is where oral appliance therapy (OAT) stands out, and we are excited to offer custom solutions through our trusted partnership with Dynaflex, a leading dental sleep laboratory.

Dynaflex specializes in precision-crafted oral appliances that gently reposition the jaw to keep your airway open during sleep. If you’re concerned about comfort or effectiveness, don’t worry. These slim, custom-fitted mouthpieces are designed for maximum comfort and have been proven to improve sleep quality, offering a non-invasive alternative for mild to moderate OSA or primary snoring.

Why Choose Dynaflex Appliances?

Dynaflex employs advanced CAD/CAM digital software and high-precision 5-axis milling machines to craft durable, clear devices that precisely fit your mouth. For you, that means a comfortable, reliable solution you can wear consistently, helping you feel more confident in your treatment’s effectiveness and ease.

Key devices we offer through Dynaflex include

DynaFlex Milled Dorsal: This reliable milled appliance features a dorsal fin for easy titration and airway optimization. Best suited for patients with mild to moderate OSA who prefer to sleep on their side or back and for those who want flexibility in jaw advancement settings.

DynaFlex Milled Adjustable Herbst: This device allows for fully adjustable mandibular advancement for individualized protrusion levels. This device is ideal for patients who require more incremental control or whose clinical examination indicates a need for greater mandibular movement, particularly those who continue to experience apnea events and have limited options for adjustment.

DynaFlex Milled dreamTAP: Based on the renowned TAP design, this appliance is milled for superior exactness and patient comfort. This appliance is an excellent option for individuals who have jaw joint sensitivity, require high durability for nightly use, or have encountered challenges with bulky devices in the past.

EMA (Elastic Mandibular Advancement): A flexible and lightweight solution using elastic straps for gradual jaw positioning. Patients who clench or grind their teeth at night and those seeking a less bulky, more adaptable appliance will find this device especially helpful.

Respire Series (Blue+, Pink AT, Pink AT Micro): Adjustable therapy devices with compact options, like the Micro for smaller mouths, and enhanced comfort features. Patients with smaller oral cavities, women seeking a more petite fit, and those sensitive to oral crowding can benefit greatly from these adjustable therapy devices.

Gateway Device: This unique, low-profile, digitally printed introductory appliance acts as a test drive to help patients acclimate quickly. This device is ideal for individuals who are new to oral appliance therapy, seeking to test their adaptability before making a commitment, or those who have struggled to tolerate CPAP due to nasal congestion.

The process is simple: At our Orlando office, we capture digital impressions or models in just minutes, making it easy and convenient for you to start your journey toward better sleep. We then submit your records via Dynaflex’s simple Digital Rx System and receive your custom appliance promptly, supporting your commitment to improved health.
