Patient Comfort
& Wellness
Sleep apnea and orofacial pain are deeply interconnected. Many patients suffer from both โ and most practitioners are only trained in one. Dr. Jaiswal's dual Diplomate status means she can address both conditions simultaneously, delivering care no other provider in Iowa can offer.
Diplomate status from both the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine and the American Board of Orofacial Pain represents years of additional clinical training, rigorous examinations, and demonstrated expertise โ the gold standard in both fields.
American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine

American Board of Orofacial Pain
Diplomate status following a specialized MDS residency at Rutgers School of Dental Medicine. Critical for patients whose sleep apnea involves jaw pain, TMJ disorders, or bruxism โ conditions that must be properly evaluated before prescribing any oral appliance.

Oral appliances are a first-line treatment for mild to moderate OSA and a recommended alternative for patients who cannot tolerate CPAP โ endorsed by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.
Silent, Comfortable & Travel-Ready
Small enough to fit in a pocket, requires no electricity, and makes no noise. Ideal for travel, camping, or anyone sharing a bedroom.
