Because of sleep apnea, I needed to explore options to help me sleep better. Dr. Harper introduced me to several different options. Together we decided that a mouth appliance was worth trying. I’ve had the appliance for over a year. I’ve been extremely happy with the results. I am now sleeping better and feeling more rested in the morning. The appliance fits right in my mouth, no hoses or masks. Thank you!.
