Waking up tired every day despite a full night in bed? Struggling with focus, irritability, or restless sleep?

At Stonebriar Smile Design in Plano, we offer modern, non-invasive solutions to help you sleep better and feel like yourself again.
What You Should Know About Snoring & Sleep Apnea
Snoring may seem harmless—but it can signal a much more serious problem. When tissues in your throat collapse during sleep, they partially block the airway and cause that familiar snoring sound. In more severe cases, those tissues can close the airway entirely, stopping your breathing for several seconds at a time. This condition is known as obstructive sleep apnea, and it affects millions of Americans each night.
Left untreated, sleep apnea can lead to:
- Chronic fatigue and poor concentration
- Increased risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, and stroke
- Higher likelihood of accidents due to sleep deprivation
- Strain on relationships from disrupted sleep patterns
Oral Appliance Therapy
We offer a simple, comfortable solution for snoring and sleep apnea: a custom-made oral appliance. Similar to a mouthguard, this device is worn during sleep and gently repositions your lower jaw forward. This opens the airway and keeps it clear—so you can breathe freely and sleep more soundly.
Before designing your appliance, we evaluate your airway and jaw structure to ensure it fits properly and works effectively. Many patients find relief without needing a CPAP machine or surgery.
Solea Sleep + SnoreLab
For patients who want a non-device option to reduce snoring, we offer Solea Sleep, a quick laser procedure that tightens tissues in the back of the throat. This creates more space in the airway, helping to reduce or eliminate snoring and some mild sleep apnea symptoms.
- Treatment time: 3–5 minutes
- No anesthesia needed
- Feels similar to a skincare laser treatment
- Results improve over several weeks
To track your results, we recommend using the SnoreLab app, which records your snoring levels each night. You’ll be able to see the improvement over time—and so will we.
