Also reduced in all but 1 study using objective measures, but better objective evaluation needed. EDS: Most often self-report. Many studies showed Epworth improvement, but not always statistically significant. Need better objective assessment in future research. American Academy of Sleep Medicine What is the efficacy of OA in the treatment of snoring & obstructive sleep apnea in the short & long term? Variables affecting OA efficacy Severity of the OSA: 9 studies analyzed success of treatment by severity of OSA mild-moderate OSA success rates: 57-81% severe OSA success rates 14-61% Amount of mandibular protrusion: <10 studies. OSA improves with more advancement. Possible increased occlusal changes with increased protrusion. Presence of positional sleep apnea: 3 studies showed greater success rates of OA with positional apnea. 2 studies found no relationship. BMI: Several studies, but not all, showed inverse relationship between BMI & OA success.

Exclusion criteria: Lack of pre- and post- insertion polysomnography studies at Hospital of University of Pennsylvania. Co-morbidities affecting the sleep study. An initial RDI < 5 without the appliance. Surgery for sleep apnea between studies. Polysomnography studies with and without the appliance greater than 6 months apart. Weight change of greater than 10% of body mass between polysomnography studies. 64 subjects were identified that had full records of pre- and post- appliance insertion at HUP. Of the 64 subjects, 41 patients met the inclusion criteria, of which 7 had multiple Polysomnography studies. Snoring was evaluated as snoring or no snoring by patient report. Partial responses or reductions in snoring were not included in the questionnaire. A two tailed paired T test was used to analyze the data. Page 6

Al. SLEEP, 2006, 29(2); Diagnosis An American Academy of Sleep Medicine Report The presence or absence of OSA must be determined before initiating treatment with oral appliances to identify those patients at risk due to complications of sleep apnea and to provide a baseline to establish the effectiveness of subsequent treatment. Detailed diagnostic criteria for OSA are available and include clinical signs, symptoms and the findings identified by polysomnography. The severity of sleep related respiratory problems must be established in order to make an appropriate treatment decision. (Standard) Definition of Dental Sleep Medicine & Dental Scope of Practice Protocol American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine: Dialogue, Issue 3, 2006, page 7 The diagnosis of SDB, particularly the potentially life-threatening medical disorder, OSA, as well as the differential diagnosis of narcolepsy, periodic limb movements of sleep, insufficient sleep syndrome, and other medical conditions that also exhibit EDS, must be determined by sleep physicians. Scope of Practice Statement American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine: Dialogue, Issue 3, 2006, page 6 Although most state dental practice acts allow us to care for the oral cavity and surrounding structures which could be construed to include the upper airway, none go so far as to directly allow for the diagnosis of sleep-disordered breathing. As such, in a court of law, a dentist would easily be shown to be outside of his scope of license and in breach of the standard of care in sleep medicine. American Dental Association Definition of Dentistry Dentistry is defined as the evaluation, diagnosis, prevention and/or treatment (nonsurgical, surgical or related procedures) of diseases, disorders and/or conditions of the oral cavity, maxillofacial area and/or the adjacent and associated structures and their impact on the human body; provided by a dentist, within the scope of his/her education, training and experience, in accordance with the ethics of the profession and applicable law.

13 Practice Parameters for the Treatment of Snoring & Obstructive Sleep Apnea with Oral Appliances: An Update for 2005 An American Academy of Sleep Medicine Report Kushida,CA, Morgenthaler, TI, Litner, MR, et. Al. SLEEP, 2006, 29(2); Appliance Fitting Oral appliances should be fitted by qualified dental personnel who are trained and experienced in the overall care of oral health, the temporomandibular joint, dental occlusion and associated oral structures. Dental management of patients with OAs should be overseen by practitioners who have undertaken serious training in sleep medicine and/or sleep related breathing disorders with focused emphasis on the proper protocol for diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up. (Option)* Although cephalometric evaluation is not always required for patients who will use an oral appliance, appropriately trained professional should perform these examinations when they are deemed necessary.

Al. SLEEP, 2006, 29(2); Treatment Treatment Objectives For patients with primary snoring without features of OSA or upper airway resistance syndrome, the treatment objective is to reduce the snoring to a subjectively acceptable level. (Standard) For patients with OSA, the desired outcome of treatment includes the resolution of the clinical signs and symptoms of OSA and the normalization of the apnea-hypopnea index and oxyhemoglobin saturation. (Standard) Oral appliances are appropriate for use in patients with primary snoring who do not respond to or are not appropriate candidates for treatment with behavioral measures such as weight loss or sleep position change. (Guideline)* Although not as efficacious as CPAP, oral appliances are indicated for use in patients with mild to moderate OSA who prefer OAs to CPAP, or who fail treatment attempts with CPAP or treatment with behavioral measures such as weight loss or sleepposition change. (Guideline)* Patients with severe OSA should have an initial trial of nasal CPAP because greater effectiveness has been shown with this intervention that with the use of oral appliances. Upper airway surgery (including tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy, craniofacial operation and tracheostomy) may also supercede use of oral appliances in patients for whom these operations are predicted to be highly effective in treating sleep apnea.

14 Practice Parameters for the Treatment of Snoring & Obstructive Sleep Apnea with Oral Appliances: An Update for 2005 An American Academy of Sleep Medicine Report Kushida,CA, Morgenthaler, TI, Litner, MR, et. Al. SLEEP, 2006, 29(2); Follow-up Follow-up sleep testing is not indicated for patients with primary snoring. (Guideline) To ensure satisfactory therapeutic benefit from OAs, patients with OSA should undergo polysomnography or an attended cardiorespiratory (Type 3) sleep study with the oral appliance in place after final adjustments of fit have been performed. (Guideline)* Patients with OSA who are treated with oral appliances should return for follow-up office visits with the dental specialist. Once optimal fit is obtained and efficacy shown, dental specialist follow-up at every 6 months is recommended for the first year, and at least annually thereafter. The purpose of follow-up is to monitor patient adherence, evaluate device deterioration or maladjustment, evaluate the health of the oral structures and integrity of the occlusion, and assess the patient for sign and symptoms of worsening OSA. Intolerance and improper use of the device are potential problems for patients using oral appliances, which require patient effort to use properly. Oral appliances may aggravate temporomandibular joint disease and may cause dental misalignment and discomfort that are unique to each device. In addition, oral appliances can be rendered ineffective by patient alteration of the device. (Option)* Patients with OSA who are treated with oral appliances should return for periodic follow-up office visits with the referring clinician. The purpose of follow-up is to assess the patient for signs and symptoms of worsening OSA. Close communication with the dental specialist is most conducive to good patient care. An objective reevaluation of respiration during sleep is indicated is sign or symptoms of OSA worsen or reoccur. (Option)* Protocol for Oral Appliance Therapy Evaluation of appliance for 2-3 months Repeat polysomnography Repeat evaluation by both pulmonologist and Dentist/OMFS Summary Ferguson, KA, Cartwright, R, Rogers, R, et.al. Oral Appliances for Snoring & Obstructive Sleep Overall, those with mild to severe OSA have a 52% chance of being able to control apnea using an appliance Oral appliances (OA) are on the whole less effective than CPAP but may be better accepted by patients OA are not recommended as a first line treatment in patients with severe OSA (AHI>40) Patients with severe OSA might consider an OA of they have failed CPAP or upper airway surgery, recognizing that the results of OA therapy in severe OSA are unpredictable.
