Dr. Cecil Lamberton
Today is the day you’ve had marked on your calendar and have been looking forward to for weeks. You’re taking time off work to take your son to the dentist, but you secretly see it as a mini-retreat for yourself. While your son is receiving excellent dental care from Dr. Lamberton and his staff, you’ll be taking advantage of the spa-like comforts of the office.

This device temporarily moves the jawbone forward and opens the airway, especially for patients with sleep apnea; the device is worn during sleep with or without a CPAP machine. You can remove the device after you wake up.
Your oral health is about much more than straight or sparkling teeth. Our office has now begun incorporating orofacial myofunctional therapy and training into our services. In simpler terms, we can act as a personal exercise trainer for your face, tongue, lips and breathing muscles, treating issues such as temporomandibular joint disease (TMJ), obstructive sleep apnea, incorrect swallowing, tongue postures and more with non-invasive techniques.
