The Sleep Buddy system offers a novel, stepwise
approach to mandibular advancement therapy,
utilizing a series of non adjustable custom devices to
simplify titration and improve patient compliance.
This serial design enables gradual adaptation
potentially reducing discomfort, optimizing airway
latency and enhancing therapeutic outcomes for
patients with snoring or mild to moderate
obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Our Vision
For individuals whose airway narrows during sleep, treatment focuses on keeping the airway open.
-
CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) provides a gentle stream of air through a mask, physically splinting the airway open.
-
Mandibular Advancement Devices (MADs) reposition the lower jaw slightly forward, helping maintain airway space naturally by preventing the tongue and soft tissues from collapsing backward.
Both treatments aim to restore normal airflow, oxygen levels, and healthy sleep cycles— allowing the body to heal, regulate hormones, and restore daytime energy.
