Dr. Claire Stagg and her staff at Health Connections Dentistry operate a certified mercury-free, holistic dental office. They are also the only Brevard County certified provider for the DNA/MRNA appliance that is FDA cleared for the treatment of snoring and mild to moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA).

This appliance is a biomimetic form of treatment for those struggling with snoring, OSA and Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome (UARS) as well as those with crooked teeth, headaches and TMJ disorders. The treatment is accomplished with a removable oral appliance worn in the early evening and during the night for approximately 16 to 18 hours each day.

“Studies have shown that this is the time of day when we can unleash the body’s natural tendency to grow bone,” states Dr. Stagg. “It is a pain-free natural process that activates a person’s naturally occurring genes allowing the palate to expand and correct midface underdevelopment. It opens the airway for patients who struggle with breathing while sleeping and snoring, as well as relieving pain for patients who have TMJ issues such as headaches and/or migraines, jaw clicking and grinding, ringing in the ears and dizziness.”

Health Connections Dentistry is located at 2120 Highway A1A in Indian Harbour Beach. 321-777-2797, SmileProfessionals.com.
