That’s why Dr. Jung and our team are committed to providing innovative dental solutions to ensure you receive the best possible care.

Accordint to American Dental Association, dentists can and do play an essential role in the multidisciplinary care of patients with certain sleep related breathing disorders(SRBD) and are well positioned to identify patients at greater risk of SRBD. Dentists are the only health care provider with the knowledge and expertise to provide oral appliance therapy.

Oral Appliances in Dentistry and Our Autonomic Nervous System

Oral appliances are custom-made devices that fit comfortably inside your mouth to help with a range of dental conditions. They can help treat snoring, sleep apnea, teeth grinding, jaw disorders, and even certain orthodontic issues. By addressing these conditions, oral appliances can positively impact your Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) function. The ANS is responsible for controlling vital functions such as heart rate, digestion, and respiration, making it essential to our overall health.

At Central Park Dental & Orthodontics, we’re proud to offer specialized oral appliances that can contribute to an improved ANS function: the Vivos DNA Appliance, the Homeoblock™ Dental Appliance and the POD® (Preventive Oral Device).

The Vivos DNA™ Appliance

The Vivos DNA Appliance is an innovative oral device that naturally expands your airway, offering a comfortable alternative to CPAP machines for sleep apnea treatment in Mansfield, TX. This FDA-cleared Class II medical device is custom-fitted and can be worn during sleep, providing therapeutic benefits for adults with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Experience better breathing and restful sleep with the Vivos DNA Appliance, the first device of its kind to receive Class II regulatory clearance.

Benefits of Vivos DNA™ Appliance Appliance:

• Comfortable, removable design

The Homeoblock™ Dental Appliance

The Homeoblock™ Dental Appliance is a revolutionary device that looks like a retainer but offers results that go way beyond teeth straightening. This removable appliance is worn at night and works by gently expanding the dental arch and stimulating bone growth, ultimately leading to a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing facial appearance.
