Throat Surgery
Depending on the type of soft palate obstruction, a specific procedure will be chosen to open the obstruction in the appropriate direction.
Inspire Therapy

CPAP / BiPAP are the most common treatment for OSA. For patients with mild or moderate OSA, an oral appliance may be an effective option.
