[QUOTE="cjjtulsa, post: 2892043, member: 6146"] So how do you tell if your dentist knows what he's doing as far as apnea is concerned? I want to do the appliance, but he said that insurance may not cover it. I damned sure am not paying what I'll have to pay for a sleep study; my deductible is $1500, and since I go to the doc but never, that ends up being a nasty bite out of my budget. Then they'd no doubt try to sell me on the rotten CPAP - which I really have no desire to mess with. My apnea is enough that it's hard for me to sleep on my back, though my wife says I do from time to time. I usually "choke" as soon as I fall asleep and it jars me awake, but I guess sometimes I get away with it. Sleeping on my sides is no problem, but I'd like the option..... Would be nice if there was some referral reference for dentists that are experts in this field, so those of us who want to go the appliance route don't have to gamble with time, money, and pain in the ass testing.
