Smyleee Rating
Rated
Koala Center for Sleep Disorders is a specialty dental practice located at 8311 San Pedro Dr NE, Suite 3, in northeast Albuquerque, New Mexico. The center serves patients in the 87113 zip code and addresses dental sleep medicine, with a focus on managing conditions such as obstructive sleep apnea and related sleep-disordered breathing through oral appliance therapy.
Dental sleep medicine involves the evaluation and management of sleep-related breathing disorders using dental devices. Obstructive sleep apnea occurs when the airway partially or fully collapses during sleep, disrupting breathing and sleep quality. Oral appliance therapy involves a custom-fitted device worn during sleep that repositions the jaw and tongue to maintain an open airway, offering an alternative or complement to CPAP therapy for some patients.
Patients referred for dental sleep medicine evaluation typically have a confirmed or suspected sleep apnea diagnosis, often supported by a sleep study. The dental provider works in coordination with the patient’s medical team to fit, adjust, and monitor the oral appliance over time, and ongoing follow-up is typically required to ensure effectiveness and comfort as the device is fine-tuned.
San Pedro Dr NE is a major north-south corridor in northeast Albuquerque, running parallel to Louisiana Blvd NE through the Journal Center and Balloon Fiesta Park area. The 87113 zip code is in the northern portion of the Northeast Heights, accessible from Paseo del Norte NE and I-25, and is also served by commuters from the northern suburbs and communities along the I-25 North corridor.
Patients considering dental sleep medicine at this or any center should ask about the evaluation and fitting process, what documentation is needed—such as a sleep study or physician referral—and how oral appliance costs interact with medical and dental insurance. Requesting written information about proposed treatment and costs before proceeding is a reasonable step.
