The Vivos Treatment Protocol
The Vivos system is a multi-disciplinary treatment protocol that is designed to address the cause of OSA and sleep disordered breathing. On average, the protocol takes 12-24 months to complete. It is nonsurgical and nonpharmaceutical, meaning less time in the dental chair and more time doing the things you love.
Vivos Sleep Apnea Therapy helps to give you back a peaceful night’s rest, is suitable for a wide range of ages, and works to contribute to your overall wellbeing without being disruptive or invasive. We at Los Gatos Dental Group are proud to offer this state-of-the-art service to our community and surrounding areas for a lifechanging experience you deserve.
How Does Vivos Work?
Pneumopedics® is a nonsurgical method for remodeling the upper airway. It involves both naturally occurring and treatment-induced changes that take place over time. Pneumopedics® is a key part of the Vivos system and can be instrumental in addressing mandibular retrusion and maxillary hypoplasia.
Benefits of Vivos
OSA can have a profound impact on virtually every aspect of your life. You will be amazed at the differences you notice as you begin to experience results from the Vivos system. Just a few of the benefits that you may be able to enjoy include:
- No more snoring
- Reduced anxiety and fatigue
- Increased productivity
- Fewer headaches
- A reduced risk of hypertension, diabetes, stroke, and Alzheimer's disease
Additionally, many patients love the Vivos protocol itself because it does not require invasive surgery, nor does it involve the use of drugs, which can have unpleasant side effects. It offers a permanent way to address the root cause of OSA without the drawbacks of conventional sleep apnea therapy.

Vivos for Children
Adults are not the only ones who can benefit from Vivos sleep apnea treatment. Many children who suffer from sleep disordered breathing do so because they have a compromised airway. If their airway is constricted, underdeveloped, or narrow, they may not get the high-quality sleep they need to feel and function their best. They do not get an adequate amount of REM sleep, and as a result, they may suffer from behavioral issues and underperformance at school. Vivos treatment gives you the means to provide your child with a better quality of sleep, without the drawbacks of drugs or other procedures that may otherwise be disruptive.
Other symptoms of sleep apnea or sleep disordered breathing in children include:
- Snoring
- Restless sleep
- Swollen adenoids or tonsils
- Dental cavities
- Bed wetting
- Arrested or delayed growth
- Chronic allergies
- Eczema
- Depression
- Asthma
- Headaches
With the use of Vivos HealthyStart dental appliances, it is possible in many cases to guide the development of children’s jaws in a way that creates a broader airway. Starting their treatment at a young age can set them up for a lifetime of apnea-free sleep.
