Vivos Therapeutics (NASDAQ: VVOS), a revenue-generating medical technology company focused on developing innovative treatments for patients suffering from dentofacial abnormalities and/or mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (“OSA”) and snoring in adults, shared results from its retrospective study during SLEEP 2022, the annual meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies. Vivos Medical Advisory Board member Dr. Seth Heckman presented at the conference on June 6, 2022; his presentation was titled “Non-Surgical Maxillary Expansion Using a Novel Oral Appliance System.” According to the announcement, the presentation showed results from 786 patients who were treated with Vivos’ customized, proprietary oral appliance therapy, which the company calls Complete Airway Repositioning and/or Expansion (“CARE”) therapy.. The patients were treated for dentofacial abnormalities and/or mild to moderate OSA and snoring. Heckman noted that study participants reported statistically significant increases in both transpalatal widths (4.%) and airway volumes (11.1%), indicating that use of these devices could result in maxillary and airway expansion, which are both key components of healthy breathing. The study results also showed that some patients reported a decrease in their Apnea Hypopnea Index (“AHI”), a scale that measures sleep apnea severity, by more than 50%. “In our published studies and presentations, we’ve shown that as many as 80% of OSA patients using our devices with a trained dentist dramatically improve their AHI scores, and as high as 34% of patients are restored to normal breathing and sleep patterns,” said Vivos chair and CEO Kirk Huntsman in the press release. “Moreover, our data has shown no further intervention has been required, which is a critical differentiating factor between our appliance therapy and other treatments for OSA. In fact, we know of no other OSA treatment that can match this. Sleep apnea contributes to multiple physical and mental health issues that most patients don’t even realize, which may include high blood pressure/hypertension, heart failure, stroke, coronary artery disease, depression/anxiety and many other life-threatening illnesses. With innovative modern technologies like CARE, highly invasive, lifetime inventions like CPAP machines and surgeries may no longer be the only answer for patients in need.”
