First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 08, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This study looks at two alternative treatments for people with moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea who cannot use a CPAP machine. One treatment is a custom mouthpiece (mandibular advancement device) and the other is a surgically implanted nerve stimulator (hypoglossal nerve stimulation). The goal is to see which one works better to improve sleep quality and daytime sleepiness. About 60 adults will take part and report their experiences over time.
