Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) has been on the rise and continues to grow, with research showing that 93% of women and 82% of men with moderate OSA have not been clinically diagnosed. Globally, there are almost one billion people with OSA. Furthermore, many OSA patients are intolerant to the CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) treatment, and are not aware that Oral Appliance Therapy (OAT) is a suitable dental solution for their medical disease.
