97% of Patients Surveyed Obtained the Desired Outcome from Vivos Oral Appliance Treatment
The efficacy of Vivos Oral Appliance therapy is demonstrated in a recent
patient study which revealed:
- Almost 97% of Vivos patients surveyed achieved the treatment results they were seeking including a significant reduction in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and its symptoms
- Nearly two-thirds rely on their dentists to effectively treat the root cause of their obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)
- Almost one-third of those surveyed wanted a non-surgical alternative to standard OSA care.
It’s results like these that motivated Dr. Maryam Seifi, the founder of Breath of Life Dental, to become a Vivos oral appliance provider.
What Is Sleep Disordered Breathing?
Sleep disordered breathing is a term used to describe any condition that affects your ability to breathe easily while you are sleeping. A common condition is sleep apnea, where your body stops breathing intermittently throughout the night. This affects your overall health and quality of sleep, and it can lead to serious medical complications like heart attack or stroke.
Obstructive sleep apnea is a condition where your upper airway cannot stay open enough for air to get through. The muscles in the back of your throat will relax too much while you're sleeping, which closes off your airway. If you have obstructive sleep apnea, you will wake up dozens of times at night choking or gasping for breath—even if you don't remember it happening when you wake the next morning.
DNA device therapy using the Vivos oral appliance can correct these upper airway problems and help you get the restful sleep you deserve. Call Breath of Life Dental at

Is Snoring a Bad Thing?
Snoring is caused by the air you breathe in and out moving past the relaxed tissue in your throat. When the tissues are too relaxed, the air causes vibrations that we hear as snoring. Many people will snore at some point in their lives, and mouth breathing makes snoring more likely. But when it's chronic, or very loud, it could indicate a risk for obstructive sleep apnea.
Oral appliances, like the Vivos DNA appliance, can help increase the size of your upper airway and reduce snoring. If you snore at night, call our office at

What Is TMJ Dysfunction?
Your
temporomandibular joint
(or TMJ) is the joint which connects your jaw to your skull. You have one TMJ on either side of your jaw, located in front of each ear.
TMJ dysfunction is a condition where you have limited flexibility in (or damage to) one or both of these joints. Symptoms include:
- Limited jaw movement
- Pain that can radiate through your face, jaw, or neck
- Clicking or popping when you move your jaw
- Headaches
- Difficulty or pain when chewing
The DNA appliance can relieve TMJ dysfunction by properly-aligning your jaw to reduce strain on the joints.
If you have TMJ pain, call Breath of Life Dental at

How the Vivos System Works
The Vivos system is a nonsurgical treatment method that uses a Vivos mouth appliance, such as the DNA appliance.
The DNA appliance looks like a retainer. It is a custom-fitted device that gently alters the shape and position of your hard palate and lower jaw, similar to how braces alter the position of your teeth over time. As your palate widens and your jaw moves forward, your upper airway will have more space. This will enable you to breathe easily at night and relieve your obstructive sleep apnea, snoring, or TMJ dysfunction.
During the course of your treatment, you will wear the DNA appliance for 12-24 months. Once your treatment is complete, you will no longer need to wear the Vivos DNA appliance.
