Dr. Drake made an oral appliance to treat my sleep apnea last year, and it made a huge difference in my life. It helped eliminate my snoring so my wife could sleep in the same room as me, and I felt more awake and aware. He is professional, funny and a true expert in sleep medicine. I would recommend anyone with sleep apnea see Dr. Drake for a dental device.

I purchased a TAP device from him for my sleep apnea. In addition to sleep apnea, I've had problems for years with grinding my teeth & jaws during my sleep which a regular mouthpieces never cured.
since getting the TAP device my sleep apnea is gone, I feel 100% better and have not had any problems with my jaw from grinding my teeth. I've lost 50 pounds and my snoring has stopped. I probably could forego using the TAP device, but continue to use it for my jaw problems.
Buying the TAP device is the best investment I ever made in my health.

BEWARE!! Dr. Drake worked on my teeth approx. 10 years ago. He replaced my metal fillings with white after telling me my teeth made me look old and metal wasn't good for me. His office equipment was very impressive . He did the left side of my mouth all at once. Well, by the time I got home I was in excessive pain---I ended up with two root canals and major problems that no other dentist really wanted to deal with. When I went back to him the first day after, ( only once), because of the pain, I left in tears after being ordered to remove my hands from my mouth as he did an emergency root canal. I lived in pain for the next 2 months before getting the second root canal from an endodontist. My teeth are still very messed up and I now have a great fear of all dentists. (I still have metal on my right side with no problems and no desire to get it changed.)
