breathMicrO₂ Sleep Appliance
Cosmetic and Neuromuscular Dentistry in Burke, VA
Experience quieter nights and deeper sleep
If you’ve been diagnosed with sleep apnea and struggle to tolerate your CPAP, you’re not alone. While CPAP therapy is effective, many patients find it noisy, bulky, or uncomfortable to wear all night. The MicrO₂ Sleep Appliance offers a modern, comfortable, and discreet alternative—helping you breathe easily and sleep soundly without the mask or machine.
At Pamela Marzban DDS, we specialize in airway-focused dentistry and provide advanced oral appliance solutions like MicrO₂, designed for comfort, precision, and long-term effectiveness.
What Is the MicrO₂ Sleep Appliance?
The MicrO₂ is a custom-made oral device that gently repositions your jaw to keep your airway open while you sleep. Unlike CPAP, which forces air through a mask, MicrO₂ supports your body’s natural breathing—without noise, straps, or tubes.
Its sleek, contoured design is smaller than most oral appliances and made for optimal comfort and durability. With MicrO₂, you can finally get the deep, restorative sleep you deserve—naturally.
Benefits of MicrO₂
The MicrO₂ Sleep Appliance is one of the most advanced mandibular advancement devices available today, offering exceptional comfort and performance.
Patients love MicrO₂ because it:
Has smooth, contoured edges that prevent cheek or gum irritation
Is compact and lightweight—less bulk, more comfort
Provides more tongue space than other appliances
Is simple to adjust with no screws, elastics, or tools
Is digitally designed for a precise, custom fit
Is made from durable, BPA-free PMMA for strength and longevity
Resists odors and discoloration due to factory-cured materials
Each appliance is digitally designed using CAD/CAM technology, ensuring an exact fit tailored to your bite and jaw position. The result: an appliance that feels natural, stays secure, and delivers consistent results night after night.
How MicrO₂ Works
The MicrO₂ is a mandibular advancement device (MAD) that gently moves your lower jaw forward to keep the airway open during sleep. This forward positioning supports your windpipe and prevents the tongue from collapsing backward—a common cause of snoring and obstructive sleep apnea.
The device consists of two custom pieces:
Upper tray (fits over your top teeth)
Lower tray (fits over your bottom teeth)
Small, precisely engineered posts between the trays maintain the ideal jaw position while still allowing natural movement—you can open and close your mouth comfortably without dislodging the appliance.
This design provides powerful results without restricting your breathing or locking your jaw, making MicrO₂ one of the most comfortable and functional sleep appliances available.
MicrO₂ vs. CPAP: The Comfortable Alternative
While CPAP therapy remains the gold standard for severe sleep apnea, many patients find it difficult to use consistently. Common complaints include:
Mask leaks or skin irritation
Claustrophobia or noise disturbance
Discomfort during travel
Interrupted sleep for both partners
The MicrO₂ Sleep Appliance is quiet, portable, and noninvasive—an excellent option for patients with mild to moderate sleep apnea or those who can’t tolerate CPAP. Many patients also use MicrO₂ as part of a combination therapy plan supervised by Dr. Marzban.
