[QUOTE="John6185, post: 2891917, member: 25679"] Rat ski, these are not boil and bite, the buyer creates a mold and sends it back to the lab for preparation of the mouthpiece. To say it's dangerous, is to say someone that goes to a foreign country for cheaper dental work because it's too costly in the US is dangerous. Dentists here are costly and with our economy I believe it's reasonable to seek a more reasonable alternative. I agree with you on those boil and bite deals. I too have Sleep Apnea-severe and I've been to sleep specialists in OKC/MWC and they rarely do anything but prescribe medications and even the sleep specialists at the VA Hospital in OKC that I've seen are lacking. Basically, a patient is on their own and responsible for their own health. Respectfully Addendum: the $300 appliance is at OU Dental School, for $1,500 I would certainly question that price and shop around,. I hate the CPAP machine. One has to carry it whenever you go overnight-trips, overseas etc. [/QUOTE]
