Sleep apnea is a chronic condition that occurs when your muscles relax during sleep, allowing soft tissue to collapse and block the airway. As a result, repeated breathing pauses occur, which often reduce your oxygen levels. These breathing pauses are followed by brief awakenings that disturb your sleep.

San Mateo Sleep Apnea Specialist Dr. Phan is always working to stay up-to-date with breakthrough technologies to help her patients thrive. San Mateo Dental Arts is now offering a take home sleep test from Zephyr Technologies. If you have been diagnosed with sleep apnea, MATRx plus is the only test that can predict if your sleep apnea will be effectively treated with an oral appliance and the position to set your mandible. This means you will be able to start effective therapy, faster.

The video reviews how to perform the MATRx test in the comfort of your home. This simple test will help you find out if you have sleep apnea and if it can be effectively treated with an oral appliance.
