THE STARSOMNA SOLUTION
Precision Engineering for Restorative Sleep
At StarSomna, we specialize in Mandibular Advancement Devices (MADs). These custom-fit oral appliances are worn only during sleep and work by gently positioning the lower jaw forward. This subtle shift keeps the airway open and stable throughout the night, effectively preventing the collapses that cause snoring and obstructive sleep apnea. It is a quiet, comfortable, and medically-proven alternative for those who find CPAP therapy difficult to tolerate.
The Benefits of Oral Appliance Therapy
CPAP Alternative
For patients who struggle with the noise, bulk, or discomfort of CPAP machines, our custom oral appliances offer a silent, hose-free alternative that is clinically proven to manage mild to moderate sleep apnea.
Travel Ready
Compact and discreet, your StarSomna appliance fits easily into your pocket or carry-on. No batteries, distilled water, or power outlets required—just restorative sleep wherever you go.
Custom Comfort
Unlike over-the-counter mouthguards, our appliances are FDA-cleared and custom-milled to your exact dental anatomy. This ensures maximum stability and comfort throughout the night.

Common Questions
How does an oral appliance treat sleep apnea?
An oral appliance works by gently repositioning your lower jaw forward during sleep. This subtle movement keeps your airway open and prevents the soft tissues from collapsing, which is the primary cause of snoring and obstructive sleep apnea.
Is the appliance comfortable to wear?
Yes. Unlike generic over-the-counter devices, StarSomna appliances are custom-made from medical-grade materials based on digital impressions of your teeth. They are low-profile, allow you to open and close your mouth, and are widely considered much more comfortable than a CPAP mask.
Will insurance cover my custom oral appliance?
In many cases, yes. Oral appliance therapy is a medical treatment for a diagnosed sleep disorder, and it is often covered under medical insurance or Medicare. Our team will help you navigate your benefits and handle the medical billing process on your behalf.
How long does the StarSomna process take?
From your initial consultation to receiving your final appliance, the process typically takes 3 to 5 weeks. This includes the time needed for precise digital scanning and custom laboratory fabrication to ensure a perfect fit.
