[QUOTE="ratski, post: 2891691, member: 936"] This is an area that I deal with in my practice all the time. If you are going to have one made by a dentist, make sure he knows what he is doing. Most (I hate to say it) don't. For a dental appliance to be effective, it has to be adjustable and custom fitted to you. Boil and Bite appliances have been shown over and over to be not effective. Incorrectly adjusted appliances are not effective. Sleep Studies can be done in a lab setting or in the home setting. Home sleep studies are less expensive and generally as reliable. Many health insurances will cover sleep studies and oral devices if the correct codes are used and everything is preauthorized. This is another area where your dentist really needs to know what they are doing. And has to be able to talk to the insurance company doc with authority if needed. Dave [/QUOTE]
