Oral appliances are an accepted first line of treatment for a wide range of adults with obstructive sleep apnea. As specialists in dentofacial orthopaedics, orthodontists are ideally suited to deliver this increasingly popular OSA treatment modality and should be well aware of both the associated benefits and complications.

Learning Objectives:
Describe the effectiveness of oral appliance treatment of obstructive sleep apnea in adults.
