Sleep Dentistry in Fayetteville, NC

Where Dentistry Meets Sleep Medicine

Sleep apnea is a medical condition, but dentistry can play an important role in its treatment.

As a dental sleep medicine provider, Dr. Pawandip Singh evaluates the dental, jaw, and oral structures that can influence treatment and provides customized oral appliance therapy for appropriately selected patients. We work in collaboration with your sleep physician to help you get best outcome.

Advanced Dental Sleep Medicine & TMD Care

Personalized solutions for sleep apnea, snoring, jaw pain, and sleep-related breathing disorders.

You may be sleeping for eight hours—but that doesn’t necessarily mean you’re getting the restorative sleep your body needs. If you snore, wake up exhausted, experience morning headaches, grind or clench your teeth, or have been diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea, there may be an underlying sleep-related breathing problem affecting your health and quality of life. At Sandhills Oral Surgery, we take a comprehensive approach to dental sleep medicine and TMD care. Our goal is not simply to provide an appliance.

Our goal is to understand your condition, develop an individualized treatment plan, and help you achieve healthier, more restorative sleep.

Your Sleep Affects More Than Just Your Sleep

Sleep is when your body restores, repairs, and prepares for the day ahead. When breathing repeatedly becomes restricted during sleep, your sleep can become fragmented—even if you don’t remember waking up.

Obstructive sleep apnea can be associated with:

• Loud or chronic snoring
• Pauses in breathing during sleep
• Gasping or choking at night
• Excessive daytime fatigue
• Morning headaches
• Difficulty concentrating
• Memory problems
• Irritability or mood changes
• Dry mouth upon waking
• Teeth grinding or clenching
• High blood pressure and cardiovascular concerns

Some people know they have a problem.

Others simply know: “I don’t feel rested.”

If that sounds familiar, it may be time to look deeper.

A DIFFERENT APPROACH TO SLEEP CARE

Your treatment isn’t based on a generic appliance or a one-size-fits-all protocol.

We consider:

• Your sleep study
• Severity of your sleep apnea
• Medical history
• Dental health
• Jaw joints and muscles
• Bite and occlusion
• Airway-related anatomy
• Previous treatment experiences
• Your lifestyle and treatment preferences
• Evidence based protocols and modern diagnostic tools
• Custom oral appliances for comfort and efficacy 
• Integrated care across dental and medical specialists

The result is a treatment plan designed around you.
