Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) affects quality of life and health. Mandibular Advancement Devices (MAD) can help with OSA but may cause dental and jaw changes. This study uses a new 3D scanning method to track these changes and compare two adjustment methods for MAD to find the best approach for patients. Goals: 1. To track dental and jaw changes in OSA patients using 3D scans. 2. To assess the impact of MAD on quality of life and cognitive function. Study Details: The aim of the study is to follow OSA patients at multiple centers over several years, comparing two MAD adjustment methods. Participants will undergo routine fitting and imaging. Outcome: The study aims to reduce dental and jaw changes and to improve MAD treatment and patient outcomes.
