ening problem,” Dr. Romack said.
“It’s one of the most undiagnosed
and untreated problems in our nation
today. It can have devastating effects
on our cardiovascular system, possi-
bly leading to strokes, heart attacks,
and high blood pressure and death.
It also directly affects one’s quality of
life.”
Most patients have a variety of
treatment options when it comes
to their apnea issues. Some choose
surgery, while others choose the
CPAP breathing machine. “Many
people are unaware of the fact that
their sleep apnea may be treated by
simply wearing an oral appliance that
holds the jaw in a different position
that opens the airway,” Dr. Romack
said.
She is one of the few dentists in
the area, that has the latest technol-
ogy to measure a patient’s airway and
determine if an oral appliance is the
best treatment for them.
As Painless as Possible
Dr. Romack has created an atmo-
sphere that ensures that her patients
are happy when they at her office
and after they’ve left so
“We’ve combined the latest tech-
nologies and proven techniques with
a gentle, caring touch to create a
truly unique kind of dental experi-
ence,” she said. “We offer a variety
of soothing comforts including a
Keurig coffee maker, blankets, special
neck pillows, and warm towels at the
end of each procedure. We want our
patients to feel like they’re in their
home away from home. We also
offer nitrous oxide and oral conscious
sedation to make our patients even
more comfortable during their visits.”
