With positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy, a PAP machine delivers air under pressure into the patient's airway through a mask while the patient sleeps. This air pressure keeps the airway open during sleep, minimising apnoea and virtually eliminating snoring altogether.

If you are a severe sufferer of sleep apnoea, it is certainly worthwhile considering PAP therapy as it provides a very effective treatment outcome. However, at Adelaide Sleep Clinic we understand that not everyone is compatible with PAP therapy, so we appreciate your wish to consider other treatment options.

That's why we are proud to be the only facility in Adelaide where you can try PAP therapy free of charge* to see if you are compatible before deciding on whether PAP therapy or a dental sleep appliance will be the right choice for you. 

If you have already tried PAP therapy without success, we would be happy to assess you for a dental sleep appliance as this is the only viable alternative.
