Each oral appliance starts with a conversation—getting to know your symptoms, history, and daily challenges. From there, Dr. Brian Briesemeister provides recommendations based on years of experience and a focus on comfort and long-term effectiveness. For example, one patient who traveled often found this treatment allowed them to finally sleep through the night without having to haul heavy or complicated equipment from hotel to hotel. That kind of simplicity makes a big difference.

Understanding Sleep Apnea and TMD

Sleep apnea can show up in different ways. Sometimes it’s loud snoring; other times, it’s waking up gasping or feeling tired no matter how long you’ve slept. TMD, on the other hand, tends to show up as tension in the jaw, clicking sounds, or pain that spreads to the ears or neck. Both conditions affect energy, mood, and overall health when left untreated.

Some common signs to watch for include:

Waking up with a sore jaw or headaches

Feeling excessively sleepy during the day

Jaw locking or clicking when opening and closing your mouth

Trouble concentrating or staying asleep

Noticing your partner mentions loud snoring or gasping at night

The good news is that both conditions can often be managed with tailored oral appliance therapy from Dr. Brian Briesemeister. It’s non-invasive and designed with comfort in mind, making long-term use more manageable. Whether the goal is better breathing during sleep or relief from jaw tension, we work with you to adjust the treatment until it feels just right.

Is Oral Appliance Therapy Right for You?

You might be used to pushing through tired days or ignoring that persistent jaw ache, but relief can start with something as small as a conversation. If you’re near Highland Springs and wondering whether oral appliance therapy might be a match, here are a few signs it could help:

You snore regularly or wake up gasping for air

You want a quiet, simple option to help you sleep better

This kind of therapy works best when the symptoms are evaluated carefully and matched with the right appliance. That’s where Dr. Brian Briesemeister comes in. His role doesn’t end after the initial fitting—he follows your progress, makes adjustments when needed, and checks in to make sure it’s still working well for your life.

When You’re Ready to Make a Change
