How AHI Grades Severity
| AHI (events/hour) | Severity |
|---|---|
| Below 5 | Normal range |
| 5–15 | Mild |
| 15–30 | Moderate |
| Over 30 | Severe |
Severity shapes treatment: for mild-to-moderate cases or CPAP-intolerant patients, an oral appliance (OAT) is a guideline-recognized option; severe cases usually center on CPAP, sometimes combined with others. For a comparison see oral appliance vs CPAP vs surgery. Use the self-check to gauge risk before arranging a formal study.
After Testing: Where OSAWELL Fits
Once a sleep study confirms OSA and grades severity, the physician selects treatment for the individual. For mild-to-moderate cases, or those who cannot tolerate CPAP after diagnosis, an oral appliance is a common non-invasive alternative. OSAWELL is a Taiwan Class II TFDA custom medical-grade anti-snoring oral appliance (TFDA Permit No. 008771), developed with a Taipei Medical University team and recommended by TDSMA, made by partner dentists from your sleep-test results and intraoral scan. Suitability and any combined therapy require an overall clinical assessment.
