Why We Choose Panthera
In biological dentistry, the materials we place in your mouth matter. Traditional sleep appliances can be bulky, made of acrylics that absorb bacteria, or contain metal parts that trigger sensitivities.
The Panthera D-SAD is different. It is 3D printed from a high-quality, biocompatible nylon (polyamide). This material is:
- Flexible & Durable: Resistant to breakage, even for heavy teeth grinders (bruxers).
- Hypoallergenic: Free from metal, BPA, phthalates, and acrylics.
- Low Profile: One of the smallest, lightest devices available, maximizing tongue space for better breathing.
We invite patients from across Denver to experience the difference of a device designed for biological compatibility and comfort.
Benefits of
Panthera D-SAD
Unmatched Comfort
Because it is digitally designed from a 3D scan, the fit is passive and precise. It does not pull on your teeth or gums, and its small size allows for lips to close naturally, preventing dry mouth.
Freedom of Movement
Unlike rigid devices that lock your jaw in place, Panthera allows you to open your mouth, speak, and drink water while wearing it, significantly reducing jaw stiffness in the morning.
Easy Maintenance
The smooth, non-porous nylon surface resists bacterial buildup and odors. It is incredibly easy to clean and does not degrade or yellow over time like traditional acrylics.
The Panthera Advantage
Engineering meets biology to provide the most advanced oral appliance therapy available.
Digital Precision (CAD/CAM)
Your device is designed on a computer and printed with lasers. This eliminates human error in fabrication, ensuring a perfect fit that requires minimal chairside adjustment.
Titration Rods
Panthera uses interchangeable rods of varying lengths to advance the jaw. This system is secure, won't slip back during sleep, and allows for precise, gradual adjustment.
TMJ Friendly
The design minimizes forces on the jaw joint (TMJ). By allowing lateral movement, it prevents the "locked" feeling that can aggravate joint pain or cause muscle tension.
CPAP Alternative
For patients with mild to moderate sleep apnea who cannot tolerate CPAP, the Panthera D-SAD is a proven, effective alternative that fits in your pocket for travel.
Customizable Bands
The device can be customized with different band strengths to manage jaw opening during sleep, ensuring the airway stays patent even if you are a mouth breather.
No Metal Parts
For our biological patients with metal sensitivities, Panthera is an ideal choice. There are no screws, hooks, or metal arms that could cause galvanic currents or allergic reactions.
Bruxism Resistant
The medical-grade nylon is tough enough to withstand heavy grinding forces without cracking, protecting your teeth while simultaneously treating your apnea.
Long-Term Health
By effectively treating sleep apnea, the Panthera device helps lower systemic inflammation, reduce heart disease risk, and improve cognitive function and daily energy.
Getting Your
Panthera
Digital Scan & Records
We start with a precise intraoral 3D scan of your teeth and bite. No uncomfortable putty impressions are needed.
Custom Fabrication
Your digital file is sent to Panthera's advanced manufacturing center, where your unique device is 3D printed to your exact specifications.
Fitting & Titration
When your device arrives, we ensure a perfect fit and show you how to swap the titration rods to gradually advance your jaw to the therapeutic position.
Sleep Verification
Once you are comfortable and your symptoms have improved, we may recommend a follow-up home sleep test to objectively verify that your apnea is resolved.
