The Moses®

  • The Moses® appliance has been shown to be the most effective oral airway dilator available for dentists to use in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). By incorporating tongue management, the Moses® appliance has improved on the effectiveness of simple mandibular advancement splints. The Moses® appliance has been shown to facilitate reflexes that advance the tongue, lower elevator muscle activity, reduce clenching and decrease bruxism. The two part design is very comfortable, allowing the patient to close their lips, talk and even sip water.

    The Moses® appliance was invented by Dr. Allen Moses DDS, DABCP, DABDSM. Dr. Moses holds a faculty appointment as an assistant professor of Rush University Medical School in the Department of Sleep Disorders. He is a Diplomate of both the American Board of Craniofacial Pain and the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine.

    Dr. Moses selected Modern Dental Laboratory USA as exclusive manufacturer and distributor of the Moses® appliance world-wide.
